benefits program for Veterans
administered by the Department of

that the VA will provide coverage for
the Veteran’s service-connected
disability when the Veteran is residing
or traveling overseas.
VA Form 10–7959f–1, Foreign
Medical Program (FMP) Registration
Form, is used to register into the Foreign
Medical Program those Veterans with
service-connected disabilities that are
living or traveling overseas. Title 38
