What does va health care do for you? | va detroit health care | veterans affairs

Veterans have a unique choice when it comes to where they get their health care. Because of your service you are eligible to apply for VA health care. When you sign up for VA care, you join

the largest integrated health care system in our nation with access to experts who understand the Veteran population and service-connected health issues. Nearly 9 million Veterans get their

health care at more than 1,200 VA locations across the country. Most Veterans receive cost-free health care services at VA, including regular checkups with their primary care provider and

appointments with specialists (like cardiologists, gynecologists, and mental health providers). You can also access Veterans health care services like home health and geriatric (elder) care,

and you can get medical equipment, prosthetics and prescriptions. Last year, VA delivered more than 116 million health care appointments to Veterans, and 90% say they trust VA to deliver

their care. You can hear many of their stories and why they choose to get their care at VA. Each Veteran’s medical benefits package is unique. Yours will include care and services to help: *

Treat illnesses and injuries, * Prevent future health problems, * Improve your ability to function, * And enhance your quality of life. All Veterans receive coverage for most care and

services, and some will qualify for added benefits like dental care. Additionally, women Veterans can receive primary care, breast and cervical cancer screenings, prenatal care, maternity

care coverage and other gender-specific services. Eligible Veterans—and their family members—may visit VA’s many community-based Vet Centers, which provide no-cost counseling, outreach and

referral services to help the whole family adjust to life after deployment. Learn more about eligibility for Vet Center Services. Detroit VA is here to help. Sign up for VA health care at
