VIETNAM VETS and Others HEARING AID BENEFIT BEING CUT/CHANGED?
The Villages VA Clinic is cutting benefits to veterans by cutting community care options. These private practice appointments had been put in place by President Trump during his last term if there was a burden to vet in going to VA Clinic. In my case, they told me I could no longer drive the five minutes in my golf cart to my hearing aids specialist for adjustments and instead have to now come into the VA clinic with a drive of over 45 minutes. A guy there with a glee in his voice said they no longer could have the contracts out there for community care costing many dollars and they have to find cutbacks. Under the current president Trump‘s administration cut backs I think audiology could find other ways to cut back besides the veterans community care services. Community care gives service within 24 hours, VA audiology takes days or weeks to get in. I wonder if they can ![]() (352) 674-5000 Audiology- ext 301620. Good luck with that! |

Both "Choice" and "Community Care" required Hubby to go to the Audiology Clinic for his hearing aids, 2017-2023. 40 miles distance, 28 days for specialty care

Your benefits are not being cut! You are still receiving hearing aids and services at no cost to you.

No worries, the thousands that have died from Brain, lung, melanoma, kidney, liver cancers plus another 26 illnesses from AO, aren’t getting anything for Free. Neither are the cancers that passed on to their children.
Fun fact more VN veterans have died from service related cancers, after service discharge, than all those who gave their ultimate sacrifice during VN war. Many families would love to give back anything Free, as you state. Just to have their Son, Daughter, Spouse, or Parent alive. We would have been grateful for the 8 babies we lost with multiple birth defects, had a fighting chance. Or that everyday we watch our daughter with inoperable brain tumor slowly lose her battle.
