VBA General Dentist

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) through the Veterans Benefits Administration (VBA) administers the Compensation & Pension (C&P) Program for benefits to Veterans, Service Members, their dependents, and their survivors. On October 9, 1996, Congress enacted Public Law 104-275 which authorized VA to contract for medical examinations (a critical piece of evidence for determining the extent of permanent impairment) from non-VA medical sources. This Project is established in support of the VA effort to provide disability examination services.
