Summary

AI-generated summary — verify against full text

This bill amends the Veterans Community Care Program to expand access for veterans to critical access hospitals and affiliated rural health clinics. Veterans residing within 35 miles of a critical access hospital or provider-based rural health clinic would be eligible for care at those facilities without requiring prior authorization or referral. The bill establishes Medicare-based payment rates for services provided at these facilities and requires claims to be processed and reimbursed within 60 days. The Secretary of Veterans Affairs must report to Congress within one year on implementation, including claim approval timelines and user experience.
