The Veterans Exposure Team-Health Outcomes Military Exposures (VET-HOME) is VA’s national hub for information and services on the health outcomes of military environmental exposures.

Veterans and health care providers both in and outside of VA can contact VET-HOME for information about exposures and health. VET-HOME can schedule and complete environmental health registry evaluations for eligible Veterans. Also, VET-HOME is for family members, caregivers, or anyone with questions or concerns about military environmental exposures.

Learn more about what VET-HOME offers, eligibility requirements for Veterans, and more on VA's Public Health VET-HOME page.

If you are a Veteran, you can use the portal to ask questions about military environmental exposures and your health. You can also learn about environmental health registry exams and schedule a free registry exam if you are eligible.

If you are a health care provider, you can:

• Find out about resources on military environmental exposures and health.
• Set up a free consultation with a VET-HOME clinician who can answer questions about military environmental exposures, including questions about your patients.
• Learn about VA’s environmental health registries.
• Discuss how a Veteran can receive a registry evaluation through telehealth.

No, you can request a registry evaluation from the VA even if you are not currently enrolled in VA health care. If you would like to be enrolled in VA health care, please visit https://www.va.gov/health-care/about-va-health-benefits/.
