Veterans open house and health care enrollment event being held Feb. 14 at Lebanon VAMC

Veterans will also have the opportunity to register for VA health care on site. Veterans interested in on-the-spot enrollment should bring their DD 214, 2018 income tax return (if filed) or 2018 income information and 2018 out-of-pocket household medical expenses. Questions on what to bring to accomplish enrollment can be directed to enrollment and eligibility at (717) 228-6000.

“We look forward to offering recurring opportunities for the Veterans of South Central Pennsylvania to come in our door and learn about our facility and the excellent care provided here,” said Robert W. Callahan, Jr., medical center director. “Our local Veterans should be proud of the quality of care VA brings to South Central Pennsylvania and I encourage any local Veteran who is not enrolled in VA health care to come in and see what VA has to offer and allow us to connect them with the benefits they have earned through their service to our country.”

The free event is open to the public and will feature numerous informational displays highlighting: enrollment/eligibility, suicide prevention, women’s health, clinical services, our community clinics, pharmacy services, telehealth, visual impairment and rehab services, Veterans employment, and environmental exposure programs.

Representatives from VA’s Veterans Benefits Administration, National Cemetery Administration and Vet Center community-based counseling centers will also be setup highlighting their programs.

Facility tours of the medical center will be offered at 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. Miss Pennsylvania 2018 Kayla Repasky will also visit the event and be onsite for a meet and greet with Veterans from 1-2 p.m.
