Question:
My husband died from lung cancer and was classified as service-connected from Agent Orange. I found out I am eligible for CHAMPVA as his employer insurance is over $500/month and they will drop me in 2 years anyway. The local hospital and doctors all take CHAMPA, so is there any hidden downside to taking it?

No, no downside. CHAMPVA is one of the better insurance policies out there. Be patient, get pre-approvals and you'll like what you'll get.
