VAMHCS Community Care
VA provides care to Veterans through community providers when VA cannot provide the care needed. Community care is based on specific eligibility requirements, availability of VA care, and the needs and circumstances of individual Veterans.
Visit the VA Community Care site, where you will find information that is specific for Veterans, depends, caregivers, providers, and payers.
