SP4RVN1971 Posted February 13, 2012 Author Share Posted February 13, 2012 Today, I received the paper's for wife for Champva. That will save me over 450.00 a month medical insurance, not including drugs and dental. Its like weight off my shoulders. That does not help me, but I'm thankful for cobra.

SP4R, I don't understand the reason for your last sentence, "That does not help me, " If it saves you over 450.00 a month - that seems like a big help ? ? ?

VetsLady Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 You can can also recoop any out of pocket medical or prescription copays from ChampVA, back to the day of your entitlement at 100% P&T - be sure to read your handbook and if you have questions, call them. You have 6 months from the date your wifes notification of entitlement to ChampVA bennies was noted. In simple terms, if she was put on their program on 1/1/12, you would have 180 days from that date to get your claims for reimbursement filed. If any are missing any piece, say a diagnosis code or an Explanation of Benefits, still mail them in because the clock starts all over again when the claim is denied due to a missing piece. My experience with ChampVA personnel has been positive, I hope yours is as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
