Official sources reviewed. Dates refer to the published cycle; the provider decides whether to award assistance. Source maintenance on 2026-10-09: broken supplemental links were replaced where applicable and the announced VGAP transition was recorded. Other field assessments retain the scope of the prior 2026-10-08 review; this is not a new complete verification.
