Veterans News

Many veterans do not know that it is possible for a private physician to get a full report of any and all treatments and examinations rendered the veteran by the Veterans Administration. This courtesy is similar to the report the local doctor receives when he sends a patient to a specialist or to a hospital, and can be very helpful to the family physician in further treating a veteran. For the private doctor to receive such reports, the veteran must make a written request to the VA. This is best done on a VA form designed for the purpose, which form may be obtained from any VA office or hospital, or from my office. The veteran's signed permission provides the VA with authority to release confidential medical information to the family physician. Edward M.
