    Yes, Medicare can be secondary to VA. The two do not work together; the VA only covers services provided at VA facilities and Medicare does not cover care provided at VA facilities. But if the VA approves care outside their providers, Medicare might cover it. As far as drug coverage goes, VA drug coverage does not have a premium and covers most or more than the drugs covered for Medicare Part D so there may not be a need for both plans if the VA is your primary provider.
