California questions

Asked by veterans here.

Plain answers for California

Can I use 9LINE Medical Corporation from Fort Irwin, Edwards or China Lake?

Yes. Those three installations are in 9LINE Medical Corporation's home county, and California is one of the four launch states opening first. Active-duty members are seen in coordination with their military primary care manager; retirees, veterans and family members of the base community who are themselves veterans can join directly.

I get some care at the VA in Loma Linda or Los Angeles. Does that matter?

No. Many members keep their VA care and use 9LINE Medical Corporation alongside it. With your permission we send your notes and labs to your VA team, and we never bill the VA or ask you to give it up.

Where do I get labs drawn in California?

At any Quest Diagnostics or Labcorp patient service center, paid at their cash price. Recent labs from the VA or another doctor can often be used instead.
