Welcome to the Healthcare Portal’s Veterans Page. When someone puts their life on the line to defend their country, it is shocking that they could even go one day without health insurance. And yet the federal government has let more than one million veterans go without health insurance, including approximately 70,000 in Illinois. Every veteran should have access to affordable, quality health insurance, and that’s why we created Veterans Care – a new program that offers access to affordable, comprehensive healthcare to veterans across Illinois. To find out more about our healthcare program for veterans click on the program icons below.

Veterans Services Officers (VSO) helps veterans apply for Veterans Care Health Insurance as well as individual disability benefits and state and federal benefits and grants for health-related needs such as adaptations to make a home wheel chair accessible. By talking with a VSO, veterans can significantly increase their opportunity to receive the maximum amount of benefits from the federal government. Visit our website http://www.illinoisveteranscare.com/vetoffices.html to find a VSO in your area.

Illinois Veterans Homes provide high-quality, long-term care to veterans at four locations: Anna, LaSalle, Manteno, and Quincy. A monthly maintenance fee covers medical care, nursing care, pharmaceuticals, medical supplies an specialized equipment as ordered by the primary care physician, food services, monthly barber services, social services, activities, housekeeping and laundry services, maintenance services, transportation services and financial services. This fee is based on income, not assets, and currently no resident is charged more than $929.00 per month. All four Illinois homes accept veterans with a minimum of one day of war-time service; peacetime veterans may be accepted when there is no waiting list; peacetime veterans or an eligible a spouse, or surviving spouse, may qualify for admittance to domiciliary care at the Quincy Veterans Home.
