My husband, a veteran from the Navy, passed away a couple of years ago. I would like to know if there is any medical coverage available for a spouse?

Here is a lot that goes into it as indicated earlier. First he would have to have been a participant with the VA based on a disability or disabilities. As for Tri are you are only eligeable if your spouse was a retiree. Go to the site recommended and read the page or two of scenarios to see if you fit into any. Depending on his veteran status and the tnliness of your marriage you may even be eligeable for a monthly stipend. Again, best bet is to go to the site and read.

In some cases a Veterans spouse may be eligible for medical coverage. But you also may be eligible for the spouses disability compensation if the dealt is a result of that disability.
