Yes. My husband was a veteran and passed away this February.
In that case you may be able to get health insurance through the Civilian Health and Medical Program of the Department of Veterans Affairs, CHAMPVA. Through this program, we cover the cost of some of your health care services and supplies.
What if I'm re-entitled to Medicare A? Do I qualify for CHAMPVA then?
Then you'll also need to enroll in Medicare Part B to be eligible for CHAMPVA.
