If you spent time in Nam, now have Diabetes/High Blood Pressure; no questions asked, you are entitled to VA Benefits. Angent Orange Registration Required! Diabetes type II with oral medications is 20%, with injections 30%.

Normal benefits for all Vets are FREE medical services, including Flu shots, physicals, etc. Precription Drugs are $8.00 for a 30 day supply.

No co-pay

When the VA accepts your diabetes they will also provide you prescriptions at no co-pay. Also, when they accept it you should get checked for retenopithy, and neoropithy. No spell check, darn. Oh yeah, seems they send me 90 days of drugs at a time.

You are correct...however once you reach 50% then all meds are free.
