Nearly 400,000 veterans have been contacted since the pilot Welcome to MyVa (W2MyVA) program started in April, 2014. The W2MyVA phone call is made in conjunction with the introductory letter and personalized handbook each veteran receives upon enrollment. Veterans or their family members can also contact a VA representative regarding VA health care services and other VA benefits by calling toll-free 1-877-222-8387 or send a secure message through VA's Inquiry Routing & Information System (IRIS) or by visiting the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Health Benefits webpage and connecting through online chat. For more information, read the VA VAntage Point Blog.
