LRGHealthcare’s VetLink Program

Today, November 11^th, our nation will take the time to honor and thank our men and women who have served, or are serving, in the military. On Veteran’s Day each year, we pause to remember the bravery they have shown, and the sacrifices they have made, so that we may live in freedom.

Veteran’s Day is important, but honoring our Veterans and showing them we care about the sacrifices they have made on our behalf should not be reserved for a single day.

LRGHealthcare’s mission is to make quality healthcare available, affordable, and accessible to all, regardless of ability to pay. Our HealthLink program serves as our community’s “front door” to healthcare, providing our friends and neighbors with the resources they need to secure access to healthcare. Our VetLink program provides that same “front door” to healthcare for the Veterans in our community.

VetLink assists all veterans and families of veterans with their questions and concerns about their healthcare. The Veteran’s Administration (VA) system is complicated, and VetLink can help veterans navigate the system to access the benefits and services that they need—and deserve. In seven years of operation, VetLink has helped more than 1,000 Veterans access the care they need through the VA system. The program has also helped Veterans access well over $1 million in compensation to which they were entitled for injuries or illnesses incurred during their service to our country.

Those who serve our country risk their own health and safety to protect our liberty. Our country’s promise to them is that, through the VA system, they will be cared for upon their return. Through the VetLink program, LRGHealthcare is helping Veterans navigate the VA system to access the care and benefits to which they are entitled. And we are working to show Veterans through our commitment to them that we honor the sacrifices they were willing to make for each and every one of us.

Not just on Veteran’s Day, but every day.

All veterans who have earned an honorable discharge from military service are eligible for the VetLink program. If you are a Veteran or a family member of a Veteran and would like more information, please call Bob Jones at 524-3211, ext. 6568.
