PRESS RELEASE

February 1, 2023

Roseburg , OR — The messaging feature in the new My VA Health is one of the most significant changes compared to My HealtheVet. We are sending you this message to assist you in recognizing your Primary Care Team in the patient portal in My VA Health.

The Primary Care Team names have been set up in a standardized format and will remain consistent. When sending a secure message, please locate your Primary Care Team's name in the drop-down menu to select your team. It is important to send your message to your Primary Care Team if you need to send a message to your provider.
