There is no direct VA hospital in Panama for USA Veterans. There is an organization that can do some things if you have been treated for that item in the USA. They will also supply meds directly in Panama if you have a disability rating of 60 or higher.
Check with Davis Ajax in Chitre for more info.聽 vso.chitre.david@gmail.com

@invader609 VA form 10-7959f-1 is the form for FMP. It is easy to fill out. If you are 100% t & p there should be no problem. Any percentage less may be an issue. Good luck, troops.

@kennonna VA form 10-7959f-1 should be all you need. You can print it out and mail it in from home. Good luck, troops.

@invader609 FMP is for living abroad, OCONUS, in a foreign country.

@yess_narvaez I can sympathize. My wife ended up dying overseas because we were counting on CHAMPVA to pay for her treatment by their own policy. But overseas we are on our own and it is hit or miss with care.

@Sunnymikkel The FMP, Foreign Medical Program, is supposed to be accepted at certain hospitals that take it. But I understand that it is difficult to find legitimate treatment with FMP. VA form 10-7959f-1.
