Income limits and your VA health care

Answer 2 questions to find out how your income may affect your VA health care eligibility and costs.

What to know before you start:

  • Some Veterans are eligible for VA health care no matter their income. You may be eligible based on your VA disability rating, service history, or other factors. If you think you may be eligible, we encourage you to apply anytime.
  • If you’re not eligible for VA health care based on other factors, you may still be eligible based on your income.
  • If your income changes after you’re enrolled in VA health care, you can report the update to us. We’ll review your current income and may adjust your copay costs.
  • You’ll need information about your 2024 household income and deductions to check income limits. Limits vary by where you live and change each year.
