WICHITA, Kan. (KSNW) -- The Department of Veterans Affairs is making a security change that requires veterans to get new log-in credentials for their VA health care accounts. The deadline is 10 days away. Veterans who fail to update their sign-in options may lose access on Jan. 31. The VA says about 4,800 Kansas veterans still need to make the change. These are veterans who are enrolled at the Dole VA Medical Center and its outpatient clinics around the state. The new log-ins are required for the My HealtheVet patient portal, where veterans can order prescriptions, view their appointments and see their VA patient records. The VA says My HealtheVet isn't going away. However, veterans and other beneficiaries can no longer use their old usernames and passwords to get into the portal after Jan. 31 or DS Logon after Sept. 30.
