The VFW made sure your accidental death coverage would stand as an important financial safety net for your family. Your loved ones would receive the full amount they’re entitled to if you fell victim to a covered accident.
No. This coverage is extended on a guaranteed-issue basis. There is no long form with complicated health questions and no medical exam required—just fill out the short form on the website to activate your coverage today.
Not as a VFW Member—you are GUARANTEED ACCEPTANCE regardless of your health history, current occupation, or hobbies.
There’s no obligation with the program’s 30-day Free Look Period. If you’re not completely satisfied, cancel within 30 days for a full refund of any premium paid, provided no claims have been made.
Your Accidental Death coverage starts the first day of the month after your enrollment form and first premium payment are received.
Acceptance is guaranteed as long as you haven’t had cancer (except skin cancer) in the required cancer-free period. If you’re healthy today, don’t wait — cancer risk increases with age¹, and you may not qualify later.

The VFW Cancer Care Insurance Plan pays cash benefits REGARDLESS of any other insurance you have — medical, Medicare, or otherwise. Use the money for hospital co-pays, travel to treatment, prescriptions, or anything at all.
Yes! After being covered for 30 days, you can collect $30.00 for any outpatient cancer diagnostic test — positive or negative. You can collect this benefit every single year you remain enrolled.

When you add it onto other coverage you may have from work or protection you may have set up years ago, $50,000 can be an important step to help your benefits keep pace with growing responsibilities like: credit card bills, student debt or other loans; buying a home; starting a family; or building your career.
No. Acceptance is extended on a guaranteed basis. There are no medical exams required and no health questions to answer. You will not need to meet with an agent to fill out long forms. Just fill out your Activation Form to conveniently add $50,000 to any coverage you may already have.
Absolutely. We know you’re a team. So as long as you enroll in member coverage, we made sure your spouse could activate this $50,000 benefit addition – with the same guaranteed acceptance status as you.
Less than you think. As a VFW member, you’re entitled to group rates. That helps you keep costs economical so adding this $50,000 member benefit is easy on your wallet. Take a 30-year-old non-smoker as an example. The group rate is $11 a month … that’s 37 cents a day. (See the rate chart under the “Rates” tab for more information.)
Generally, no. Medicare and most major medical plans require deductibles, co-payments, and balance billing. Your out-of-pocket costs can run into hundreds or thousands of dollars even for a short stay. The Hospital HELP Plan pays a flat cash benefit to help cover those gaps.
Absolutely not. There are NO medical exams or health questions when you sign up. As a VFW Member, you and your spouse are GUARANTEED coverage regardless of your age or current health (subject to the pre-existing condition provision).
Yes. Once your coverage goes into effect, you are immediately covered for any new injuries or sicknesses. Any condition treated in the last 12 months will not be covered until you’ve gone 12 consecutive months without treatment for it, or been covered for one continuous year — whichever comes first.
No. There is NO LIMIT to the number of claims you can make. You can never be singled out as an individual for cancellation or a rate increase, no matter how often you are hospitalized.
Hospital HELP covers VA care too — $60/day for Days 1–14 and $120/day for Days 15–30, even if your VA care costs you nothing at all.
YES! It’s one of the fastest growing crimes in America. In 2023 alone, 15 million Americans were victims of identity fraud and identity thieves stole $43 BILLION*.

*2024 Identity Fraud Study, Javelin Research & Strategy
Identity thieves target people of all backgrounds, ethnicities, incomes, and locations, but there are three groups who have experienced higher incidences of identity theft and fraud in recent years. Millennials are more likely to share personal information, such as contact information via social media – which identity thieves target. Seniors make up 35% of all cases of identity theft*. As you get older, the ramifications can be exponentially worse, since you simply may not have enough time to rebuild your financial security. Children have clear credit reports, which are highly valuable to criminals who can fraudulently use their data unnoticed for years. *FTC, 2017
