A DVA card is a card provided by the Department of Veterans Affairs (DVA) that gives access to certain benefits to veterans, their war widow(er)s, and dependants. The benefits depend on the type of card, and may include free or cheaper healthcare and support, discounts on goods and services, and access to DVA approved treatment for service-related conditions. There are different types of DVA cards, including the Veteran Card and the Gold Card. The Veteran Card provides businesses the opportunity to offer concessions and benefits to veterans in recognition of their service. The Gold Card provides access to a range of health services, including medical, hospital, and pharmaceutical services, for all medical conditions.
