VA Community Care Network
We are proud to provide care to Veterans.
Through the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), the Community Care Network Program provides eligible Veterans with options for receiving care in the community and decreased waiting times at VA medical centers.
Veterans experiencing unreasonable burdens, such as
- waiting over 28 days for an appointment or
- driving 60 minutes or more to their local VA
Veterans work with their local VA to obtain approval for a Community Care authorization.
Veterans must contact the Office of Community Care at their local VA to confirm their enrollment status in the Community Care plan. The Seattle VA number is 206-764-2404. Be sure to mention that you are trying to receive hearing aids or hearing aid services. The Office of Community Care will then determine the veteran’s eligibility based on the Mission Act guidelines. To learn more about Community Care Network eligibility, please visit the VA site. Once enrolled in the Community Care Network program, if an authorization is approved, the veteran may provide our clinic name and address as the referral source. Once we receive an annual authorization, we will work with the veteran.
