Rural veterans get COVID-19 vaccine thanks to a pilot program through MTVAHCS

HAVRE, Mont. - Since the first talks of a COVID-19 vaccination coming to Montana, one of the biggest concerns was getting these vaccines to rural parts of the state.  Now, a new pilot program could be the key to getting Montana s vets in the furthest part of the state vaccinated.  Montana s Department of Veteran Affairs was selected to lead a national veterans health administration pilot program.  Because of the nature of the state of Montana, we re highly rural, we re also a mountain state.We were up here in less than an hour with the vaccine. It was probably still frozen when it arrived. So, it just enables VA to get vaccines in rural and highly rural areas, said Dr. Judy Hayman, the executive director for Montana VA Health Care System.
