Does it actually matter if I'm the primary caregiver? What is the difference between primary and secondary caregivers?
Your Veteran can appoint 1 primary main caregiver and up to 2 secondary caregivers people who serve as backup support to the primary caregiver when needed. Your benefits will depend on whether you re the primary caregiver or a secondary caregiver.
I get that. So do I qualify for the benefits of this program?
You'll qualify for this program based on your Veteran s qualifications. You may be eligible if the Veteran you're caring for meets the requirements.
