The percent increase between the two values is
\( 1.07 * 10^6 \% \). So, the correct option is None of these.

To calculate the percent increase between two values, you can use the following formula:


\[ \text{Percent Increase} = \left( \frac{\text{New Value} - \text{Old Value}}{\text{Old Value}} \right) * 100 \]

In this case, the old value is the number of VA Vet Centers, and the new value is the number of VA Outpatient Sites. Let's denote them as
\( \text{Old Value} = 43 \) and \( \text{New Value} = 19,209,704 \).


\[ \text{Percent Increase} = \left( (19,209,704 - 43)/(43) \right) * 100 \]

Now, calculate the percent increase:


\[ \text{Percent Increase} = \left( (19,209,661)/(43) \right) * 100 \]


\[ \text{Percent Increase} \approx 446,256 * 100 \]


\[ \text{Percent Increase} \approx 1.07 * 10^6 \]

So, the percent increase is approximately
\( 1.07 * 10^6 \% \).

However, none of the provided choices matches this result exactly.
