[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 336334, member: 1963"] Sadly, Dreamer, in your area I am not all that surprised. I live in a town of about 8K people and I've never had a problem with either ChampVA or Medicare being accepted. On a couple of occasions I have had to pay claims and submit them myself, but for the most part it just works like any other combined ins. I HAVE had to walk people through the ChampVA website to process claims on a few occasions, but that's about it. The issue that can arise is that Medicare pays a set amount for specific services, as does ChampVA. You can wind up paying a copay for what ChampVA and Medicare do not cover. I would seriously write a letter to your Congressman/woman and aprise them of the situation. ANY facility getting any state or federal funding, cannot refuse to treat Medicare patients. [/QUOTE]
