Care shouldn’t wait on a referral.
While you wait for VA community care to approve your referral, Veterans InWellness covers up to 7 sessions of chiropractic care, medical massage, acupuncture or mental health care — paid directly to the provider.
To fill the gap in holistic health care while veterans wait for VA community care to approve their referrals.
Approval for community care takes time — and pain, injury and stress don’t pause while paperwork moves through the system.
Veterans InWellness steps in during that wait. Approved veterans receive chiropractic care, medical massage, acupuncture or mental health care from local providers, and we pay those providers directly, so treatment can begin now.
