DRAFT Insert Your Logo Here Veterans Choice Program Overview The Department of Veterans Affairs strives to ensure quality, timely care for all Veterans. In an effort to increase Veterans’ access to health care, VA implemented the Veterans Choice Program (VCP) – a program that allows eligible Veterans to use approved health care providers outside of the VA network. The Veterans Choice Program was implemented as part of the Veterans Access, Choice, and Accountability Act of 2014 (VACAA).

DRAFT Insert Your Logo Here Veterans Choice Cards VA mailed all Veterans a Veterans Choice Card. The Choice Card allows you to choose to receive care outside of VA if you qualify for the new program. The Choice Card does not replace the identification card you already use to access other VA benefits. If you are satisfied and wish to continue with your current VA care, there is nothing you need to do at this time. You should save your Choice Card in case you would like to use the program in the future. Don’t worry if you did not receive or have misplaced your Choice Card. Call to find out if you are eligible for the program and to make an appointment.

DRAFT Insert Your Logo Here Determining Eligibility You must have been enrolled in VA health care on or before August 1, 2014, or you are eligible to enroll as a recently discharged combat Veteran. Additionally, you must meet at least one of the following criteria: You are told by your local VA medical facility that you will need to wait more than 30 days for an appointment from the date clinically determined by your physician, or, if not such date is provided, our preferred date. Your home is more than 40 miles driving distance from the closest VA medical facility. You need to travel by plane or boat to the VA medical facility closest to your home. You face an unusual or excessive burden in traveling to the closest VA medical facility based on geographic challenges, environmental factors, or a medical condition. Staff at your local VA medical facility will work with you to determine you are eligible for any of these reasons. You reside in a State or a United States Territory without a full-service VA medical facility that provides hospital care, emergency services, and surgical care having a surgical complexity of standard, and reside more than 20 miles from such a VA medical facility. NOTE: This criterion applies to Veterans residing in Alaska, Hawaii, New Hampshire, Guam, American Samoa, Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Also note that some Veterans in New Hampshire reside within 20 miles of White River Junction VAMC.
