Medical Care
The VA provides a range of health care services to veterans ranging from basic doctor and lab services to in-patient hospitalization and surgery. These medical services are also often available to the eligible dependents of the veteran. Costs to the veteran for these services varies depending on the veteran’s specific circumstances and the specific type of medical services and treatment. The VA has and operates a nationwide network of medical centers and hospitals to serve the nation’s veterans.
VA Home Loans
The VA Mortgage Loan program makes it possible for many veterans and their families to buy their own home. Very often, a VA Mortgage will allow no or a very small down payment, which truly often is the key to make a home purchase possible. In addition, VA mortgages have reduced interest rates and other features that allow the monthly payments to be reduced. Also, there is special assistance available to families who face financial problems, to help them avoid foreclosure.
Education Benefits
This famous benefit started after World War 2, commonly known as the GI Bill, to allow veterans to get a college degree tuition free. This program has since expanded and provides veterans with financial assistance to pursue not only a college degree, but also vocational and technical training and other types of educational and training opportunities. The standard benefit under the GI Bill is one month of paid tuition for every month the veteran was serving in the armed forces, up to 4 years.
Disability Benefits
This benefit program provides financial and special medical assistance to veterans who became disabled while serving or who had an existing disability worsened as a result of their military service. This covers not only physical disabilities, but also psychological disabilities including post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and other forms of mental disorders. Disabled veterans are also provided with special vocational and employment assistance.
Employment Assistance
Veterans are provided with vocational training and other forms of employment training, counseling and job placement assistance. These programs are provided by both the VA and the federal Department of Labor. Veterans are also provided by law with special preference for civil service and other government related jobs.
