One of the best ways to manage your health is to develop a long-term health care plan with your VA providers. VA’s toxic exposure screening can help you plan for future concerns. If you’re
enrolled in VA health care, you'll receive an initial screening and a follow-up screening at least once every five years. If you’re not enrolled but meet eligibility requirements,
you’ll have an opportunity to enroll and receive the screening. GET YOUR TOXIC EXPOSURE SCREENING All Veterans enrolled in VA health care can receive a toxic exposure screening at an
upcoming appointment or sooner by contacting a toxic exposure screening navigator. It’s a quick 5-10 minute screening to identify any potential exposures to toxins during your military
service. Depending on your response, you may be connected to support and resources, including a review by your primary care team. POTENTIAL EXPOSURES COULD INCLUDE: MAKE YOUR TOXIC EXPOSURE
