Show Notes

The Department of Veterans Affairs is announcing that all Veterans who were exposed to toxins and other hazards while serving in the military will be eligible to enroll directly in VA health care on March 5, 2024.

This means that Veterans who were exposed to burn pits, Agent Orange, herbicides, chemicals, nuclear weapons, or other toxins while serving in the military – at home or abroad – will be able to enroll directly in VA health care without first applying for VA benefits.

Retirement.Radio’s Matt McClure speaks with Dr. Shereef Elnahal, Undersecretary for Health at the VA, to find out more about how these veterans can get the help they need.
