Veteran's Care Coordination
Making Sure Veterans Receive the Benefits They Are Entitled To
As a veteran, you made sacrifices for our country. You were there for us when we needed you—now let us be there for you. Many U.S. veterans are unaware of the Aid and Attendance benefit. This benefit allows qualifying veterans and surviving spouses the ability to receive funding to pay for home care services.

- Must have served 90 days or more of active duty, with at least one day of service during a wartime period.
- Must have a non-service-related medical condition, requiring assistance with activities of daily living.
- Must meet the asset requirement (excludes home and car).
