The Aid & Attendance Program

For most veterans, the idea of collecting a pension benefit from the military does not seem like a real possibility, unless you have suffered a service-connected disability. However, there is a veteran’s pension benefit program available to all veterans and their families, which is available to pay for un-reimbursed home health and medical expenses and the un-reimbursed cost of assisted living.

This program is called the Aid and Attendance Program and does not require a service-connected disability. Our knowledgeable lawyers can help determine whether you qualify and lay out the steps needed to receive your pension.

Your loved one may qualify for benefits if:

• They need assistance with grooming
• They have a prosthetic or orthopedic appliance
• They cannot feed themselves without assistance
• They have a physical disability
• They require assistance on a regular basis for their health and safety
