[November 13, 2019]  The Logan County Veterans Assistance Commission in conjunction with Southern Illinois University Medicine is pleased to announce an improved dental plan for uninsured, Honorably Discharged veterans.

The current copay of $25.00 has now been waived due to increase funding from the VAC, SIU and a grant. A veteran can now receive a basic annual exam, x-rays and cleaning with no out of pocket expense.

SIU dental has added a second Dentist to the Logan County Program to handle the increase of veteran patients. SIU recognizes that good oral health provides a person a better opportunity to have a healthier life. In the event that further treatments are needed SIU can provide a sliding scale rate.
