Turning Point in Providers

The letter came yesterday.

By law, on and after October 1, a veteran without a war wound and with medicare needs to be aware that he is covered for some service at VA Hospitals at his own expence after Tricare.  No VA Hospital excepts medicare. All veterans with medicare are requested to seek Tricare-4-Life providers before October 1.

That is a summation and it took several readings to figure that much out. Plus a call. And I am not sure the call center understood the letter!

Between us we have four college degrees. Surely we understood some of it. What we know for sure is that God's timing is perfect.

Raymon has had two major surgeries, numerous tests and labs, squads of doctors, physical therapy, two MRIs and consultations all before this ruling came down. And that is only this year. Prior to this year, he has had physicals, general doctor services, screenings and other medical treatments.

At this stage of the game, new eyes are a good idea.

We embrace this twist with open arms.

As the Summer is further from its beginning, the surgery side effects continue to recede slowly. The numbness in the legs and right hand fingers remains the same. Frustration is the king hinderance! I am guessing that it would be easier if he felt or looked bad.

Thanks for hanging in with us.

Raymon has already begun set-up visits with new doctors. :-)

  1. That is wonderful news! God is so good.
    Speaking from experience, a change in provider can be the BEST next step. I am so excited for you. We will keep you and Raymon in our prayers and also pray that he is linked up with exactly the people God want's him to have for his ongoing treatment and care. Love you!!!
