Vietnam Veterans of America

Senior Veterans · District of Columbia · Free

Help for Vietnam-era veterans, including Agent Orange and PTSD claims. Worth contacting before nursing home placement — VA may cover a portion that Medicaid won't. VA healthcare enrollment is a separate process from VA pension — both should be applied for if eligible. VA pension and Medicaid can be coordinated — talk to an elder law attorney to maximize both without disqualifying either. Open at no cost to D.C. seniors and the families supporting them.
