What happens when I sign in with VA.gov?

Connecting your VA.gov account is optional, and every service works without it. If you choose to connect, you sign in on VA's own pages (through Login.gov or ID.me) and VA asks which categories of information to share with Telemedica: your verified service history, your disability rating and claim status, and, only if you authorise it, your VA health records.

We retrieve only the categories you approve and place them in your Telemedica file, so you do not have to find and upload records by hand. Your provider reads them to prepare your evaluation and your evidence. Section 4 of our Privacy Policy describes the connection in full.
