PRESS RELEASE
March 20, 2026
Iron Mountain, MI - Members of the Oscar G. Johnson VA Medical Center (OGJVAMC) outreach and enrollment team will travel to Northern Wisconsin hosting 4 separate enrollment events on April 15 and 16, 2026.
Significant changes are now in effect for Veterans. The PACT Act, signed into law in 2022, has expanded eligibility for VA health care, allowing more Veterans to qualify—even those who were previously denied. Some benefits include free hearing aids, eyeglasses, and cheaper healthcare. Medication co-payments start at $8 and are capped at $33, with many veterans paying no out-of-pocket costs.
The meetings are an opportunity for Veterans and their families to review healthcare eligibility and enroll immediately and any unenrolled or unregistered Veterans are encouraged to attend.
Veterans should bring their DD214, income from the previous year, if married, date of marriage to their spouse, date of birth of any dependents and social security number of any dependents.
If you’re a Veteran, don’t miss this opportunity to review your possible eligibility for VA care!!
