Veteran’s Benefits continue to make headlines as more soldiers return to the U.S. in need of care. The care that many of these soldiers that were injured need is not finite. Care is needed for a much longer period of time, and in some cases the care is needed throughout the veteran’s life. Benefits for many veterans are outlined in the Caregivers and Omnibus Health Services Act which requires the VA to provide caregivers of a wounded post 9/11 veteran with certain provisions. Sometimes, a veteran returns home and needs help and support from a family member to get by with day to day activity. Certain benefit provisions written into the Caregivers and Veterans Omnibus Health Services Act are intended to support these caregivers and the veterans that they serve by providing aid via monthly stipends, medical insurance and other supports depending on the given situation. The VA reports that the complexities of benefit program development and eligibility regulations make program implementation much more difficult. The program has also stirred up controversy because many Americans, and some politicians, feel that it does not go far enough to provide support for all of the veterans and caregivers that need the benefit provisions. A toll free number is provided through the VA as a support Line at 1-800-260-3274. More information can be found on-line at USA.gov. Author: Genny Germano
