Veterans Affairs website launched on Affordable Care Act

The Department of Veterans Affairs has launched www.va.gov/aca to let veterans know what the Affordable Care Act means for them and their families.

Veterans receiving health care from the VA will see no change in their benefits or out-of-pocket costs when portions of the Affordable Care Act take effect next year.

Veterans can apply for VA health care by visiting www.va.gov/healthbenefits/enroll, calling 1-877-222-VETS (8387), or visiting their local VA health care facility.

Full details on eligibility are available at www.va.gov/opa/publications/benefits_book.
