The Department of Veterans Affairs has launched a new way for Veterans to connect with their health care providers from anywhere.

VA Video Connect uses encryption to ensure a secure and private online session. It makes VA health care more convenient and reduces travel time for Veterans, especially those who live in rural areas with limited access to VA health care facilities.

It works on most devices that have an internet connection and a web camera, including Windows-based PCs and laptops, and WIndows, iOS, and Android mobile devices.

Veterans interested in using VA VIdeo Connect should talk to their VA care team.
