Is anyone getting any information on the MISSION Act? The VA keeps saying it’s great, but without any information, is there another source?

I went to a meeting today on the MISSION Act, it was SRO, and I can’t stand for long periods of time, so I had to leave. My local VA is very short on help with this, but someone has to know the scoop.

Thanks!

I did get some material over the weekend about the urgent Care clinics that are in network.

That’s an overview site, drilling down doesn’t seem to provide any more meat than what I’ve found, but thank you! There’s a few nuggets in there to be gleaned out.

VA.gov

The .gov means it’s official. Federal government websites often end in .gov or .mil. Before sharing sensitive information, make sure you're on a federal government site.

Yes lots. Myehealth has sent many emails on it. The VA Center has been very proactive promoting it. Plus every VA Medical Center has an Office open weekdays to stop in and get more information face to face

I just posted my update on MISSION Act in a new update, but I can’t figure out how to invite each of you to look at it, so maybe you’ll see this. Thank you everyone for your help.
