660D Health Literacy Among Veterans-Blog by Brandon L. Ignatowski & Robert Leumaga The drive of this blog is to encourage awareness and resolution about the Social Determinant of Health (SDOH) problem regarding the limited l imited health literacy among the veteran population. Veterans have access to one of great health care system, especially the government sponsor VA Healthcare. But health literacy limitation contributed to many health problems facing these veterans. The CSUSB s MPH students are one of the catalysts to put a direct voice and action in addressing the poor health literacy among veterans in the spotlight. Whereas, health education, promotion and counseling, and other professional guidelines are greatly needed, via ’
simple language, reassure the veterans can understand health issues and health system. Thus, arming them with the health literacy ability to make vital health decisions, contributed in improving their welfare.

Although veterans have access to health care, they regularly suffer from various health inequalities. Among veterans, roughly 29% have low health literacy. This compares to ~ 13% in the U.S. population (Bruss, Thome, & Denis, 2014).
Veterans that have inadequate health literacy are not as likely to participate in their decision making about their health, but that does not mean that they differ in the amount of trust they have ha ve for their physicians (Rodriguez et al., 2013). Increasing their health literacy can help them make their own decisions about their health they see fit.
Older veterans (age >65 years) ~ 5 times more likely to have low health literacy when compared to younger veterans (Chew et al., 2006).
