We have served thousands of veterans over the years and can help with arranging reimbursement from the VA. Our commitment to their care is just one of the ways we demonstrate appreciation for their service to our country.
Many of these heroes live in our community – they are our fathers, mothers, spouses, and friends – and many may be eligible for a unique benefit through the VA called “Pension with Aid and Attendance“. This benefit may provide reimbursement funding of up to $25,440 a year to help cover medical expenses, including home care services provided by ElderCare.
Millions of qualifying veterans and families go without Aid and Attendance simply because they are not aware of the benefit and are unable to pay for home care. Through our partnership with Veterans Care Coordination, we are able to assist qualifying veterans and their spouses to apply for and obtain the Aid and Attendance Benefit through the Department of Veterans Affairs.
What makes this partnership unique is the fact that Veterans Care Coordination can offer financial assistance to clients that cannot afford to pay for the up-front, out of pocket expense of home care through their Veterans Appreciation Program.
Who’s Eligible?
- Veteran, or surviving spouse of a veteran, who served 90 consecutive days of active duty with at least 1 day during a wartime period …(other war eligibility may be required depending on when you served)
