No-Cost Acupuncture Treatments for Military Veterans
The Veterans' Access to Care through Choice, Accountability, and Transparency Act of 2014, also called the Veterans Choice Act, is a public law that provides funding for Veterans so they may seek treatment outside of the VA. The law stipulates you must live 40 miles away from the nearest VA hospital or be unable to get an appointment within 30 days. Everyone who qualifies for medical coverage through the Department of Veterans Affairs qualifies for 100% covered Acupuncture treatments through the Veterans Choice Program.
Why acupuncture?
Many veterans seek acupuncture treatment because it is simple and effective.
National Institutes of Health (NIH) studies have shown that acupuncture is an effective treatment alone or in combination with conventional therapies to treat a variety of conditions. It can work harmoniously with other treatment modalities such as medication, physical therapy, chiropractic care, massage, and counseling.
