Virtual Health Resource Centers

Virtual Health Resource Centers (VHRCs) empower Veterans, their family members and caregivers, and VA staff to take advantage of virtual care tools.

Get Help Using VA Virtual Care

VA’s VHRCs connect you with health technology experts who can provide guidance, hands-on support, training, troubleshooting help, and other information regarding virtual care tools. Available services and appointment options vary by location, with many VHRCs offering a combination of phone, video, and in-person consultations with health technology experts.


How VHRCs Help Veterans and Their Family Members and Caregivers

Veterans can speak with an expert to determine which virtual care options might be right for their health and lifestyle needs. The experts are also available to help Veterans get started with VA apps or set up VA-loaned devices.

 

“The VHRC certainly has a personal touch. They took the time to listen and hear what I had to say.” 

— U.S. Army Veteran

“The VHRC has been great. If there’s a need, they’re willing to help. The resources available have made me more connected with my health. I will be 60 soon, and I feel like I’m getting healthier.”

 — U.S. Army Veteran


How VHRCs Help VA Staff

VA staff members can turn to VHRCs for support with incorporating virtual care tools into their daily workflow or clinical practice. Depending on the location, VHRC experts may offer training for staff to stay up-to-date on virtual care tools and technologies. VHRCs also serve as a resource that VA staff can refer Veterans to when they have questions or need technical support beyond the VA staff member’s expertise.

VHRCs are open to all Veterans, their family members, caregivers, and VA staff. VHRC hours of operation may vary by location. Please contact your VHRC for more information.
