Information from the Roseburg VA Medical Center said enrolled women veterans can now schedule gynecology appointments without needing a referral from their primary care physician.

Patients can still choose to continue receiving routine women’s health care, screening and services from their regular women’s health and primary care teams. Patients may be charged copays for VA gynecology care for conditions not related to their military service, depending on their service-connected disability rating and income.

The VA offers care for women veterans who are pregnant or interested in becoming pregnant. Routine prenatal care, labor and delivery and immediate postpartum care are provided to veterans through care in the community. Veterans are connected to this care through their primary care team, who are critical partners in their health during pregnancy and postpartum. Veterans who are pregnant are encouraged to contact the VA maternity care coordinator at the Roseburg VAHCS MCC at 670-2458.
