There needs to be something done about the fact that NNRH does not accept the VA Veteran's Choice card. Currently, there is no provider assigned to the Elko VA Clinic. This position is being backfilled by another provider assigned to another VA clinic in Utah. So you can imagine the waiting times for veterans needing an appointment. Only two providers in Elko currently accept the VA Choice Card, Rural Health Services and Dr. Patel. This needs to be remedied ASAP.
