Do you provide care to military veterans who are “service connected” for a neurological or oto-neurological problem?
Yes. Veterans may take advantage of the “fee-basis” option which allows them to seek specialty services outside the VA system when no such specialty exists at a particular VA hospital. Veterans are advised to see their local VA neurologist, otolaryngologist, internist or other doctor first, after which time a fee-basis referral can be considered. If the consult is approved by the medical director, the VA fee-basis department will pay for the veteran’s visit, workup and treatment within a given time period.
