Frequently asked questions
What is a VA Community Provider?
A VA Community Provider is a healthcare provider or facility outside the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) system that offers medical services to veterans under VA’s Community Care programs.
Why would a veteran seek care from a Community Provider?
Veterans may seek care from a Community Provider if they are unable to access timely or specialized care within the VA system, if they live far from VA facilities, or if they prefer receiving care closer to home.
Can veterans choose their own Community Providers?
In some cases, veterans may have the option to choose their own Community Providers within VA’s network of approved providers. However, there may be limitations based on factors such as provider availability, specialty, and contractual agreements.
Can veterans continue to receive care from their regular Community Providers if they enroll in VA healthcare?
Veterans who enroll in VA healthcare can continue to receive care from their regular Community Providers if the providers are part of VA’s network of approved providers and services are authorized by the VA. Coordination of care between the VA and Community Providers is essential for optimal health outcomes.
