OZZ, since I'm the Commander of my home town American Legion I get all of these notices and I go to the County Veteran's Service Office and talk to him also. He was telling me that the plan is good but they really do not how to handle it yet. As was stated, you do have to have approval from the VA to see that local doctor or whoever you need to see and that approval can take some time. I use the VA for major things but since I'm on Medicare and also have to have a private health insurance company because the DW has not reached the age yet, I usually just go to my local docs and clinics and all is covered. I don't feel I need to use the VA most of the time because it does take a lot longer to get through the VA process most of the time!
