Got a sore throat or a sprained ankle and don't want to go to a Department of Veterans Affairs hospital? Got sick at 8:00 on a Friday night and don’t want to wait until Monday to see a VA doctor?

This is an expansion of the VA's Mission Act, which itself was an expansion of the Veterans Choice Act. Read more about the new benefit on Military.com.
