  • We discuss dental care for veterans with Jessica Ewell

    Send us Fan Mail

    Jessica is with an organization called Everyone for Veterans. This organization helps provide free dental care for veterans and their spouse who are not eligible for dental care through the VA. Many people do not realize that healthcare is not free at the VA until the veteran reaches a certain level of service connection percentage. Dental care is not even available until you reach 100% service connection. Everyone for veterans fills in that gap so veterans who cannot afford comprehensive dental care can get this care. If you are a veteran or a spouse of a veteran and need dental care, give Everyone for Veterans a shoutout on their website. www.www.everyoneforveterans.org. As always, we thank Veterans Assurance Network for presenting this podcast. www.veteransassurance.org
