I am excited to have the opportunity to serve our nation's heroes here in Michigan. As an Air Force Veteran and a true Michigander, I am honored to be a part of the VA's legacy in providing excellence in care.
Your sacrifices in serving our great nation are valued and respected by VA. We express our gratitude for choosing the VA to address your healthcare needs.
Tony Colón
Medical Center Director
Serving Veterans in Alpena, Bad Axe, Cadillac, Indian River, Clare, Gaylord, Grayling, Oscoda, Saginaw, and Traverse City, Michigan. VA is improving and expanding access information on the www.AccesstoCare.VA.gov website to better support Veterans as they plan their health care. The website will provide a more comprehensive representation of average wait times for Veteran health care services and an expanded list of specialty care services – such as mental health.
 For 80 years, the Veterans Health Administration has fulfilled America’s promise by helping Veterans thrive. Today, expanding programs like adaptive sports and creative arts are taking that commitment even further. Learn more:

 With the transition to the Federal Electronic Health Record at VA Saginaw Healthcare System, the billing statement you receive in May 2026 may look different than previous statements.
In addition, depending on when you received services, you may receive two bills in May – one for services received prior to the transition on April 11, and one for services received after the transition.
Please note that both statements are valid.
For any questions about billing statements, please call the number listed on your billing statement. Representatives are available Monday through Friday, from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. ET.
