VA Uber Health Connect Rides to Medical Care for Veterans
VA Uber Health Connect is a door to door transportation service that Lebanon VA Medical Center offers to Veterans who need a way to get to and from medical care. It is supplemental transportation, offered in addition to the other ride options listed for Veterans who use the Berks County VA Clinic at 2762 Century Boulevard, Ridgeview Professional Center, Suite 120, Wyomissing, PA 19610-3345.
To be eligible you must meet BT (beneficiary travel) eligibility criteria and be able to safely ambulate in and out of a vehicle. Beneficiary travel benefits include round trip transportation from your home to the medical center, mileage reimbursement, or special mode transport, and you can check whether you qualify at va.gov/health-care/file-travel-pay-reimbursement.
One rule matters most: VA has to schedule the ride. Veterans must allow VA to schedule their ride with Uber; otherwise, they may be responsible for the cost of the trip. What a properly scheduled ride costs the Veteran, if anything, is not stated.
The number listed for Uber Health Connect is 717-272-6621, ext.6022. Veterans or transportation teams interested in learning more about the program are directed to contact their local facility. For general questions, the Berks County VA Clinic's main phone is 484-220-2572. The page lists Monday through Friday, 7:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. as the clinic building's hours and notes that hours may vary for different services; no hours are published for the Uber Health Connect ride program itself, and the page does not describe an application or sign up process.
Lebanon VAMC serves a nine-county area in South Central Pennsylvania covering Adams, Berks, Cumberland, Dauphin, Lancaster, Lebanon, Perry, Schuylkill and York counties, and also oversees community clinics located in Mechanicsburg, Lancaster, Pottsville, Wyomissing, York and Fort Indiantown Gap.
The program started as a pilot at ten VA Medical Centers in 2022.
