Local Veterans who are not yet enrolled for VA health care were invited to a virtual information session hosted by the VA Maryland Health Care System and held on August 19, 2026. Attendees were presented with an overview of the VA health care enrollment process and eligibility requirements, along with details on how to apply for enrollment. The presenters and panelists then answered their specific questions.
