The PACT Act and Your VA Benefits

The PACT Act is a law that expands VA health care and benefits for Veterans exposed to burn pits, Agent Orange, and other toxic substances. This law helps us provide generations of Veterans – and their survivors – with the care and benefits they’ve earned and deserve. And starting March 5, 2024, we’re expanding VA health care to millions of Veterans – years earlier than called for by the PACT Act.

This page will help answer your questions about what the PACT Act means for you or your loved ones. You can also call us at 800-698-2411 (TTY: 711). And you can file a claim for PACT Act-related disability compensation or apply for VA health care now.

Enrollment Application for Health Benefits
(VA Form 10-10EZ)

VA health care covers care for your physical and mental health. This includes a range of services from checkups to surgeries to home health care. It also includes prescriptions and medical equipment.

Here’s what you’ll need to apply:

  • Social Security numbers for you, your spouse (if you’re married), and any dependents you may have.
  • Insurance card information for all health insurance companies that cover you. This includes any coverage that you get through a spouse or significant other. This also includes Medicare, private insurance, or insurance from your employer.
  • Your military service history information and details about exposure to toxins or hazards.
  • A copy of your DD214 or other separation documents. If you sign in to apply, we may be able to fill in your military service information for you. If you don’t sign in to apply, you can upload a copy of your DD214 or other separation documents.

In Appreciation,
