How to Qualify?

To qualify for Veterans Benefits, seniors must:

Not have a dishonorable discharge
Have served at least 90 days on active duty
Have served at least one day during a period of war (as defined by the VA)
Be over age 65 or totally and permanently disabled
Meet specific financial criteria

What Is Covered

Depending on the qualifications and needs of the veteran, veterans benefits may cover all or a large portion of home care services. Even veterans who do not qualify to receive veterans benefits may be able to deduct the costs of home care when calculating regular pension benefits. This new countable income may allow families receiving no more than a pension to receive a disability income in addition.

Benefits of Home Care

Home care allows veterans to stay in the comfort of home while receiving assistance with many of the activities of daily living. This can ease the strain on crowded VA nursing homes and community living centers in the area. Receiving home care can also allow seniors with less critical medical needs to remain living more independently, visiting VA hospitals and facilities only when needed.
