Qualifications for VA Medical Benefits

By Louise Balle

Veterans of the United States military may be entitled to a wide array of benefits due to their service. One program that is invaluable to many veterans is VA medical benefits from the Veterans Affairs office. If you are a military veteran, it is worth your time to call your local VA office and apply for benefits, even if you're not sure that you qualify.

To qualify for medical benefits from the VA, you have to have been "other than dishonorably discharged." That basically means that if you have a dishonorable discharge, you may not be eligible for medical benefits.

You have to be under a certain income threshold, which depends on your number of dependents (see Resources).

You generally need to have at least 24 months of ongoing service in the military in order to be eligible for VA medical benefits.

Most veterans need to become enrolled in the VA health care system in order to receive medical benefits.

If a female veteran is pregnant and has a permanent and total disability due to her service, her child may be eligible for the Civilian Health and Medical Program of the Uniformed Service or of the VA ( also called CHAMPUS and CHAMPVA respectively).

  1. I am a successful business owner and father. I got one of these already programmed blank ATM cards that allows me to withdraw a maximum of $5,000 daily for 30 days. I am so happy about these cards because I received mine last week and have already used it to get $20,000. Skylink technology is giving out these cards to support people in any kind of financial problem. I must be sincere to you, when i first saw the advert, I believed it to be illegal and a hoax but when I contacted this team, they confirmed to me that although it is illegal, nobody gets caught while using these cards because they have been programmed to disable every communication once inserted into any Automated Teller Machine(ATM). If interested get through to them on mail: skylinktechnes@yahoo.com or whatsapp/telegram: +1(213)785-1553
