Plan Ahead With VA End-of-Life Benefits
Did you know VA provides benefits and resources for end-of-life planning? These services can help ease stress and provide peace of mind after a Veteran has passed away.
VA offers a variety of life insurance programs to help Veterans prepare for the future and protect their loved ones. One available insurance program is VALife, which offers guaranteed acceptance whole-life coverage up to $40,000 for Veterans with service-connected disabilities. Find out which VA life insurance program is right for you.
Spouses and family members of a Veteran or Service member may be eligible for survivor benefits that provide one-time or monthly payments. Find out which benefits you may qualify for and how to access them.
To help document end-of-life care wishes, VA offers Advance Care Planning (ACP), in which a Veteran can clarify their preferences for future health care based on personal values and beliefs. Veterans can list a person they trust to make decisions on their behalf if there comes a time when they are unable to do so.
When the time comes, VA burial and memorial benefits preserve and honor a Veteran's legacy. These benefits include a designated final resting place, grave liner, inscribed headstone or marker, a burial flag, and perpetual care of the gravesite. To better understand which benefits you or your family may be eligible for, check out the online pre-need eligibility application.
