The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) ensures that Veterans receive the care they need, whether directly at VA facilities or through community providers. Community care is an option when the VA cannot provide the required services due to specific eligibility factors, availability, or individual circumstances.
Key Aspects of VA Community Care:
Eligibility Requirements: Access to community care depends on factors such as the type of care needed and the Veteran’s location.
Availability of VA Care: If the required care is not available at a nearby VA facility, the Veteran may be referred to a qualified community provider.
Individual Needs: The unique needs and preferences of each Veteran are taken into account when determining care options.
