user: Hi, I'm a veteran and wanted to know if there are any health care facilities i can go in case i need, please.

assistant: Before that, i have to ask, Did you sign up for veterans health care?

user: Actually, i didn't do that.

user: Look, lets say i already signed up for veterans health care, and i've moved to a new location far from my previous one. I guess i'll have to update my data, How can i do that?

assistant: You can give us a call at 877-222-VETS or 877-222-8387, Monday through Friday, from 8 am to 8 pm. ET

user: You know, i'm not very fond of being on a facility or treatment center. Is there a chance that i can receive treatment in my own house?

assistant: That's a certain possibility. You may get not only health care, but nursing care or even everyday help, right in the comfort of your home.

user: That sounds like suited to me. But lets say i'm in other location, needing assistance and the health facility can't give it to me. What happens there?

assistant: As enrolled veteran, you should be covered. You'll need to find out how you can be able to receive treatment from a local provider.

user: Ah,then better look for it soon. Tell me something, when i need to go to a facility, i'll be receiving good and constant care?

assistant: That's correct. You'll receive regular care on that location of your choice.
