The free event will be held in the hospital’s main entrance lobby and is for military Veterans not enrolled in VA health care or who have not been seen by a medical provider recently. 


Essential medical services will be available during the event, and any qualifying Veteran can enroll in VA health care. Information and presentations unique to each Veteran’s needs will also


be offered. Representatives from the Veterans Benefits Administration will be available to discuss disability benefits and other resources. 


Event registration is preferred. To register, call (708) 202-8387, Ext. 28066, Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. 


Hines VA’s event follows a recent VA milestone. In August 2022, VA began one of its largest expansions of Veteran entitlements as part of the PACT Act, which extends eligibility and benefits


to Veterans exposed to burn pits and other toxic substances. 


In May 2024, VA announced its one millionth Veteran to receive disability benefits under the PACT Act expansion. More than 39,000 PACT Act claims have been submitted by Illinois Veterans,


where approximately 560,000 Veterans reside. 


Hines VA is located at: 5000 S. 5th Ave., Hines, IL 60141.  


The Gary Sinise Foundation will provide catered meals to guests.
