How agencies work with service providers

VHC assessment agencies assess the needs and approve services for veterans and their families. They send service plans to VHC service providers and care plans to veterans and their dependents.

VHC service providers deliver help and care services to veterans and their families across Australia. These providers should alert the assessment agency if a client’s needs change over time.

The VHC program has 54 service delivery areas called VHC regions that cover all of Australia. Each region has its own assessment agency and service providers.
