SALIDA, Colo. (AP) -- A new veterans clinic in Salida will formally open on Friday.

The new facility is called a primary care "tele-health" clinic. It will use videoconferencing equipment to allow veterans to communicate with doctors at a Veterans Administration outpatient clinic in Pueblo.

Medical staff are also at the Salida clinic.

It is the first of 10 new tele-health clinics the VA plans.
