There is a Veteran program that extends beyond the VA Hospital if you are otherwise qualified and are unable to receive the appropriate treatment within 30 days (or they have certain geographical challenges) for routing non-emergencies. All Veterans in the program were to have received their cards at this point. If you qualify and have not I would contact the VA promptly.

I could type everything out, but you can get all of the answers here. Is it a perfect system? Not by any means. Are they making progress to improve it? Yes. You can also talk to the Office that handles it at your nearest VA Medical Center. It will be listed as either Non-VA Care, Community Based Care, or Purchased Care.

I appreciate the direction. I tried speaking to the Purchased Care person at my nearest VA Hospital, but I didn't speak sufficient Klingon to understand what she was saying.
