UNDERSTANDING THE PACT ACT & HOW VETERAN-FOCUSED SUPPORT CAN HELP

For many veterans navigating the complex world of benefits and health care, the PACT Act or the Sergeant First Class Heath Robinson Honoring Our Promise to Address Comprehensive Toxics Act of 2022—marks a significant step forward. Signed into law on August 10, 2022, this legislation expands health and benefit eligibility for veterans exposed to toxic substances during military service.

Veterans meet with advisors to discuss how the PACT Act impacts their VA disability benefits.

What the PACT Act Means for Veterans

• Expanded Coverage: The PACT Act adds new “presumptive conditions” related to toxic exposure—such as burn pits, Agent Orange, radiation, and other harmful chemicals—making it easier for veterans to access care and benefits.

• Broader Eligibility: It extends access to VA health care and benefit programs for veterans and their families impacted by toxin exposure.

• Improved Screening & Research: The law strengthens toxic-exposure screening, documentation, and research in order to support validated claims and better health outcomes.

How We Help

While we do not file claims or represent veterans in legal proceedings, we specialize in supporting those who:

• Are no longer on active duty, with an Honorable or General Under Honorable discharge

• Are not already rated at 100% or receiving a VA pension

• Are ready for a clear, efficient, veteran-focused educational path

If you’re looking for someone to connect you with the right information and strategic next steps, you’re in the right place.

Whether you’re just beginning to explore your benefit options or you’ve hit roadblocks in the process, the PACT Act and the broader landscape of veteran care are evolving—and so can your approach. At Patriot Path Solutions, we’re committed to helping you move forward with clarity and confidence.
