What is a Veterans Health Check?

It provides an opportunity to access early intervention care and appropriate referrals when you need it. It is an opportunity to establish a relationship with your GP in order to manage your health and enjoy better health outcomes both during and in the years after your transition to civilian life." - dva.gov.au
