Veteran's Choice Program

[4570govt]

Another thing that I think President Trump has got right, is the Veterans Choice Program. We have been enabled to see civilian Doctors if you live in a rural area and the nearest VA clinic/hospital is more than fifty miles from your home. At least, this is my understanding. I know my wife and I don't have to drive over a hundred miles to the Little Rock VA hospital now, I can see doctors a lot closer to home and continue to see the same specialists.

Just mentioning this, I've ran into other vets who don't know about it.

That's good to know, I wasn't aware of it.

It was my understanding that Trump signed it into law and it is effective for all Vets. I'm surprised there's still more to do.

I've had to use Veterans Choice, and it's a great thing.

I used it for physical therapy as well as for a MRI.

Excellent! I see a knee specialist and a foot specialist, both in a civilian hospital, far more convenient for me and good care.
