CHAMPVA provider workflow

CHAMPVA Provider Search

CHAMPVA does not use a traditional network directory. Start with Medicare Care Compare, narrow the office by ZIP and specialty, then confirm the practice will bill CHAMPVA before you schedule.

CHAMPVA Rules
Best setup

Use a 5-digit ZIP and keep the radius modest first. That usually gives cleaner physician results than a wide search.

Before you book

Ask whether the office accepts CHAMPVA and bills CHAMPVA for the visit, not just whether it accepts Medicare.

Community care reality

The region shown above helps you identify the likely CCN administrator. Routine community care still usually starts with VA authorization or a referral path.
