LoBiondo to Hold Next Enrollment Clinic in Court House

COURT HOUSE – Continuing his commitment to South Jersey veterans, U.S. Representative Frank A. LoBiondo (NJ-02) today detailed his plans to hold the next enrollment clinic in Cape May Court House at the Administration Building to help local veterans in determining their eligibility and, if eligible, facilitate their participation in the VA healthcare system. The Cape May Court House enrollment clinic will be held on Friday, April 29th.
“For too long, our veterans have had to actually leave the state to receive medical treatment at VA centers. Particularly with those returning from service in Iraq and Afghanistan, our veterans’ population here in South Jersey continues to grow. With more local veterans registered in the VA system, we will be able to bolster our claims of a significant need for local services,” said LoBiondo. “I remain committed to our veterans and will continue to host these clinics while working to expand local access to healthcare.”
Despite the VA’s claims that there is an insufficient need, LoBiondo has long advocated for greater local healthcare services and continues to work with VA officials and local veterans groups to bring additional services to the four VA community-based clinics in South Jersey (Vineland, Ventnor, Cape May, Sewell).
As at previous enrollment clinics, there will be representatives from the Wilmington VA Medical Center on hand to answer veterans’ questions and explain eligibility requirements. Veterans who plan to attend are asked to bring their DD-214 forms, tax forms and valid picture ID.
Details of the Veterans Enrollment Clinic on Friday, April 29th are as follows:
Cape May County –
Administration Building – Intermediate Room
4 Moore Road, Cape May Court House
9 a.m. until 1 p.m.
Veterans can also determine their eligibility and enroll in the VA healthcare system, and ask additional questions as well, by contacting the VA at 1-877-222-VETS or visit the website www.va.gov.
This will be the eighth enrollment clinic hosted by LoBiondo across South Jersey, with previous sessions in Bridgeton, Somers Point, Elmer, and Vineland. For additional information, veterans are encouraged to call LoBiondo’s Mays Landing Office at 609-625-5008 or 1-800-471-4450 or visit the Veterans Center on LoBiondo’s website: www.house.gov/lobiondo/Veterans.shtml
