WASHINGTON — The U.S. Veterans Affairs Department will open a national call center in Waco, Texas, to help answer questions from veterans and VA pharmacies.

U.S. Rep. Chet Edwards announced the new project Wednesday during a visit by VA Secretary Eric Shinseki to Waco’s VA hospital. The Waco Democrat says the center in the hospital complex is expected to employ 224 workers.

Edwards says the center will be situated in a building in the Waco VA complex that will undergo a $4.5 million renovation, starting next month.
