Now, I am going to ask you some questions about the VA Medical Center with which you have had experience as an inpatient.

Q1. Before you entered the VA Medical Center for inpatient care, you probably knew something about that VA Medical Center. Now think back and remember your expectations of the overall quality of the VA Medical Center. Please give me a rating on a 10 point scale on which "1" means your expectations were "not very high" and "10" means your expectations were "very high."

How would you rate your expectations of the overall quality of the VA Medical Center?
