Discussion for article #234630
Not news at all, I received my card allowing me to use as an Health Care Insurance card early last fall. I’ll be using it next week for an MRI, I can get one at the local hospital about 15 miles away vs driving for 2 1/2 hours each way at my VA hospital as the VA clinic I usually go to does not have the equipment. Was supposed to have one installed last Novemberl but sequestration nixed that.
Good to hear and good luck with your next appointment.
And, thank you for your service to your country.
I’m glad to hear this change is being done – it shows the administration is sincere in responding to problems and helpful suggestions. Especially for veterans in underserved rural communities. Access to rural health care is a problem for veterans and civilians alike, due to many factors.
