Returning Combat Veterans
Welcome Home and Job Well Done!
We value your service and your sacrifice. Because of this, the VA Maryland Health Care System is committed to support returning troops from Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF), Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF) and Operation New Dawn (OND), and to make sure they have the health care and benefits they need and deserve.
Seamless Transition
The Seamless Transition effort is a nationally designated system of care created to meet the specific needs of those troop members returning from Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF), Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF) and Operation New Dawn (OND). The goal is to ensure that these returning service members receive the highest quality of care in a timely manner. We are examining the unique needs of the OIF/OEF/OND service members and will continue to provide services to meet those needs. Our facility designated OIF/OEF/OND points of contact are available to assist you in establishing health care services and to answer any questions you may have.
