    Here's What Women Veterans Need to Know for Health Care and Disability Claims:

    The passing of the Sergeant First Class Heath Robinson Honoring Our Promise to Address Comprehensive Toxics (PACT) Act in August 2022 has expanded VA benefits for all veterans exposed to toxic substances.

    New presumptive conditions for burn pit and toxic exposures
    Expanded VA health care eligibility
    Disability compensation for new illnesses
    Toxic exposure screenings and care
