Alaska Veterans are celebrating the opening of the new VA Healthcare system facility on the outskirts of Anchorage. The clinic started seeing patients on May 10th.
At 184,000 square feet, the complex houses medical, dental, mental health, physical therapy and a wide range of services to help veterans get enrolled for health care benefits and disability. Marcia Hoffman Devoe is a spokeswoman for the Alaska VA.
She says when a veteran checks in for appointments they’re directed to one of 4 waiting areas that serves all physical and mental health appointments.
