Quote

In practical terms, eligible Veterans who have specific illnesses VA presumes to be associated with herbicide exposure do not have to prove an association between their illness and their military service. This “presumption” simplifies and speeds up the application process for benefits and ensures that Veterans receive the benefits they deserve.


Quote

VA encourages Veterans with covered service in Korea who have medical conditions that may be related to Agent Orange to submit their applications for access to VA health care and compensation as soon as possible so the agency can begin processing their claims.

So it appears a Korean war vet does not has to prove they were exposed to get benefits any more. You should go apply if you think this applies to you!

According to the government site:

Quote

HAP provides assistance in four ways. For eligible applicants, the Government may:

1. Reimburse you for part of your loss from selling your home.
2. Assist you, if you don’t have funds from the sale of your home to pay-off your mortgage.
3. Purchase your home by paying off the mortgage.
4. Help, if you default on your mortgage.

Quote

The Department of Defense (DOD) is proud to offer the Homeowners Assistance Program (HAP) to eligible service members and federal civilian, including non-appropriated fund, employees. The program is authorized by law, and administered by the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) to assist eligible homeowners who face financial loss when selling their primary residence homes in areas where real estate values have declined because of a base closure or realignment announcement

If you are able, please consider visiting a cemetery and placing flowers for a veteran where there are none, or go out of your way to help a disabled vet, their widow, widower or children.

Welcome!]]> admin General Discussion Sat, 27 Mar 2010 14:31:33 -0400 http://veteransprograms.com/read.php?7,94,94#msg-94 Medical Bills http://veteransprograms.com/read.php?7,94,94#msg-94
I am now facing extensive medical bills as a result and am wanting to know if there is any way to receive Veterans Administration assistance in covering these expenses.

Being a Veteran, I have earned the benefit but do not know how to obtain hospitalization expense coverage (since the VA Hospital did not - in the evaluation of the emergency medical personnel - have an adequate treatment facility available.

Please Help!
