VA Central Western Massachusetts Healthcare System

Worcester Community-Based Outpatient Clinic

Important Announcement for Worcester VA Patients

VA Central Western Massachusetts Healthcare System includes clinics in Worcester, Springfield, Fitchburg, Pittsfield, and Greenfield, and the medical center in Northampton.

Appointments. For appointments in Worcester, call the VA Central Western Massachusetts Call Center at 1-800-893-1522.

Records. Your medical record will now be assigned to VA Central Western Massachusetts. We ask for your patience over the next few months as appointments and prescription processing times may be slightly extended due to a necessary transfer of records.

Pharmacy. If you see a Worcester provider, the Worcester pharmacy will fill your prescriptions. However, if you see a Boston provider, a VA Boston pharmacy will fill your prescriptions -- not Worcester. For prescription refills, call the number on your prescription vial for refills. 

Labs. Lab tests ordered by Boston providers must be done at a Boston lab. They will not be done at Worcester. Lab tests ordered by Worcester providers will be done at the lab in Worcester.
