- VBA claims clinic
- Toxic exposure screenings

More PACT Act Information:
The PACT Act adds to the list of health conditions that we assume (or “presume”) are caused by exposure to these substances. This law helps us provide generations of Veterans—and their survivors—with the care and benefits they’ve earned and deserve.
You can call 800-698-2411 (TTY: 711) to ask questions about the PACT Act and you can file a claim for PACT Act-related disability compensation or apply for VA health care now.
