VA Filing System Computerized
KENTUCKY...
Kentucky veterans should see quicker filing of benefits claims, thanks to a new computerized system installed by the state.
Department of Veterans Affairs Commissioner Ken Lucas says the E-Vet Assist system makes it faster, more accurate and more efficient to help veterans obtain the benefits and services they earned.
The new system allows the department to file veterans' claims electronically, reducing the time to get a claim from the veteran to the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs from a week to the same day.
The department can also check on the status of a claim more quickly.
The new system is made possible by a $90,000 grant from the Kentucky Veterans Program Trust Fund. It uses donations to support veterans programs that don't receive state funding.
