The Department of Veterans Affairs recently announced that women Veterans can now schedule appointments directly with VA gynecology providers without a referral from a primary care provider.
The new, streamlined process takes effect immediately and eliminates the previous requirement for a PCP referral to access VA gynecology care. Instead, enrolled women Veterans can schedule an appointment directly with a VA gynecology specialist if they choose.
