VA Health Care Meets ACA Rules

Submitted by Andy GERO

If you are enrolled in VA health care, you don’t need to take additional steps to meet the health care law coverage standards that began Jan. 1. The health care act (Affordable Care Act) does not change VA health benefits of veterans’ out of pocket costs. For more information, visit the Dept. of Veterans Affairs website at www.va.gov/health/aca/index.asp.
For more on veteran health benefits programs, visit the military.com benefits center.
