The VA Steps, Start to Finish

  1. Find an in-network provider. Search the VA’s locator on your own, or ask your VA health care team to find one.
  2. Request a referral. Tell your VA health care team you’d like to see us. VA makes sure you’re eligible, then reaches out to confirm the kind of care you need. Plan on up to 14 days for this.
  3. Book your appointment. Call us directly, or have your VA team schedule it. Booking it yourself? Let your VA team know within 14 days.
  4. Get your authorization letter. VA sends it once you’re scheduled. It’s your official approval for community care. Have it in hand before your first visit.
  5. Go to your visit. VA sends us your medical records. If we ask for CT scans or MRIs, bring copies with you.
  6. Track your care. Your letter lists how long you’re approved. VA doesn’t pay for services the letter leaves out.
  7. Need more visits? You or our office can ask VA for a new referral.

Reading Your Authorization Letter

VA’s letter gives you an authorization number. It names your approved community provider and describes the care you’re approved for. It also says how long that approval lasts.

Before You Call Us

  • Have your authorization letter handy.
