AFFAIRS
38 CFR Part 0
RIN 2900–AQ60
Core Values, Characteristics, and
Customer Experience Principles of the
Department
Department of Veterans Affairs.
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
This document amends the
Department of Veterans Affairs’ (VA)
regulations concerning the standards of
ethical conduct and related
responsibilities of its employees by
adding a new section to the subpart for
VA’s Core Values and Characteristics,
which includes VA’s Customer
Experience Principles. VA’s Customer
Experience Principles add to the
foundational values and organizational
characteristics that define VA
employees and articulate what VA
stands for, respectively, and these
principles are a set of guidelines that
will be applied Department-wide to all
VA employees. This final rule
establishes VA’s Customer Experience
Principles and ensures their proper
application to the VA workforce.
DATES: This final rule is effective on
May 20, 2019.

Experience Office (30), Department of
Veterans Affairs, 810 Vermont Avenue

number.)
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
rulemaking amends 38 CFR part 0 to
add Customer Experience Principles to
Subpart A. Maintaining a sustained
organizational commitment to, and
institutionalized focus on, the voice of
the customer is a critical component of
modernizing VA to meet the needs and
expectations of Veterans, their families,
caregivers, and survivors. VA is
privileged to serve a vast and diverse
khammond on DSKBBV9HB2PROD with RULES
SUMMARY:
VerDate Sep<11>2014
15:55 May 17, 2019
Jkt 247001
population: In Fiscal Year (FY) 2018 VA
had 9.15 million enrollees in VA health
care; 4.74 million Veterans receiving VA
disability compensation (as of
September 30, 2018); 3.12 million active
VA home loan participants (as of
September 30, 2018); and 946,829 VA
education beneficiaries (FY17). With
hundreds of facilities and over 350,000
employees, VA must provide consistent
and exceptional experiences to every
customer across all the different ways in
which Veterans, servicemembers, their
families, caregivers, and survivors
interact with VA. Codifying these
principles will ensure that they receive
the proper emphasis at all levels within
VA, are clearly understood by the
workforce, and, most importantly,
become an enduring part of the VA
culture. Adding Customer Experience
Principles to the Core Values and
Characteristics further demonstrates that
VA is a people-centric organization.
Administrative Procedure Act
This final rule establishes internal
guidelines relating to agency practice or
procedure and sets forth general
statements of agency policy.
Accordingly, it is exempt from the prior
notice-and-comment requirements of
the Administrative Procedure Act
pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(A). Also,
because this final rule only establishes
internal guidelines relating to agency
practice or procedure and sets forth
general statements of agency policy, VA
finds application of the delayedeffective-date requirement of 5 U.S.C.
553(d) is unnecessary, and consequently
there is good cause to exempt this rule
from that requirement in accordance
with 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3).
Effect of Rulemaking
Title 38 of the Code of Federal
Regulations, as revised by this final
rulemaking, represents VA’s
implementation of its legal authority on
this subject. Other than future
amendments to this regulation or
governing statutes, no contrary guidance
or procedures are authorized. All
existing or subsequent VA guidance
must be read to conform with this
rulemaking if possible or, if not
possible, such guidance is superseded
by this rulemaking.
Paperwork Reduction Act
This document contains no provisions
constituting a collection of information
under the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501–3521).
Regulatory Flexibility Act
The Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5
U.S.C. 601–612, is not applicable to this

rulemaking because notice of proposed
rulemaking is not required. 5 U.S.C.
601(2), 603(a), 604(a). In any event, the
Secretary hereby certifies that this rule
does not have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small
entities as they are defined in the
Regulatory Flexibility Act. Therefore,
pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 605(b), this
rulemaking is exempt from the initial
and final regulatory flexibility analysis
requirements of 5 U.S.C. 603 and 604.
Executive Orders 12866, 13563 and
13771
Executive Orders 12866 and 13563
direct agencies to assess all costs and
benefits of available regulatory
alternatives and, when regulation is
necessary, to select regulatory
approaches that maximize net benefits
(including potential economic,
environmental, public health and safety,
and other advantages; distributive
impacts; and equity). Executive Order
13563 (Improving Regulation and
Regulatory Review) emphasizes the
importance of quantifying both costs
and benefits, reducing costs,
harmonizing rules, and promoting
flexibility. Executive Order 12866
(Regulatory Planning and Review)
defines a ‘‘significant regulatory action,’’
requiring review by the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) unless
OMB waives such review, as ‘‘any
regulatory action that is likely to result
in a rule that may: (1) Have an annual
effect on the economy of $100 million
or more or adversely affect in a material
way the economy, a sector of the
economy, productivity, competition,
jobs, the environment, public health or
safety, or State, local, or tribal
governments or communities; (2) Create
a serious inconsistency or otherwise
interfere with an action taken or
planned by another agency; (3)
Materially alter the budgetary impact of
entitlements, grants, user fees, or loan
programs or the rights and obligations of
recipients thereof; or (4) Raise novel
legal or policy issues arising out of legal
mandates, the President’s priorities, or
the principles set forth in this Executive
Order.’’
The economic, interagency,
budgetary, legal, and policy
implications of this final rule have been
examined and it has been determined
not to be a significant regulatory action
under Executive Order 12866. VA’s
impact analysis can be found as a
supporting document at https://
www.regulations.gov, usually within 48
hours after the rulemaking document is
published. Additionally, a copy of the
rulemaking and its impact analysis are
