 As a veteran, I live with health impacts from my service. VA health care means you're in 100% control of your own medical care, your own benefits, and it only takes minutes to set up. A veteran should enroll in VA health care because it ensures that they get quality, high-level care for the rest of their lives. My service was then. My benefits are now. Get what you earn. Visit choose.va.gov. Not all veterans are eligible for the type or amount of benefits mentioned here.
