VA Medical Care

Jim Fausone
Veteran Disability Lawyer

OEF/OIF combat Veterans can receive cost free VA medical care for any condition related to their service in the Iraq/Afghanistan theater for five years after the date of their discharge or release.

If you decide to use your VA Health Care Benefits:


  • Enroll in VA Healthcare (You'll need your DD214, Photo ID, medical records, and current prescriptions)

  • Schedule your first VA healthcare appointment for a baseline medical exam

  • Access your one time VA dental benefit (must be within 180 days of return from combat)

  • Meet with your VA OEF/OIF/OND Care Management Team for help navigating VA benefits, post deployment screenings and to learn more about your benefits and services

  • Register for TRICARE benefits, if eligible
Learn more at http://www.oefoif.va.gov/ or call 1-866-606-8216 (7am - 7pm CST M-F).
