You’d join around 9 million Veterans who already access care through VA’s Veterans Health Administration, which delivers services at more than 170 VA medical centers and 1,074 outpatient sites of care.

So maybe just get in touch with any local outfit with the word &quot;Veterans&quot; in it, and see where it goes...

It&#39;ll probably depend on that state you&#39;re in too because many states have additional resources based on your needs.
