Before You Visit

Determine Your Eligibility

Before receiving services with VAMC Erie, you should first determine your eligibility. Use our eligibility page to make an application for health care benefits. 

Schedule an Appointment

Eligible veterans should contact the VA Medical Center to schedule an appointment with a primary care provider. Use our contact page for how to call us. Change or Cancel an Appointment

If you have an existing appointment and cannot keep it, let us help you change it. This way, we will be able to see another veteran during that time period. Let us help you reschedule or cancel your appointment.

Billing and Insurance

You may be billed for a number of copayments as a result of your stay or appointment. We can also file claims with your insurance. Learn more on our Billing and Insurance page.

Copay

Attention Veterans subject to copays:  As of November 1, 2010, you may be charged a $15 copay for care in some of our nurses’ clinics. There will still be no copay charged for EKGs, flu vaccines or pneumonia vaccines.  If you have any questions about your copay status, please ask at check-in or go to the VA Health Care Copay Site.
