Summary
This bill amends federal law to require the Department of Veterans Affairs to establish and maintain a formulary—a standardized list of prosthetic and rehabilitative items and services available to veterans. The VA must develop the formulary based on best available evidence, solicit veteran and public input, ensure all listed items are available at VA facilities, and publish it online with regular updates. The bill also requires the VA to establish a process allowing clinicians to prescribe non-formulary items when medically necessary and to monitor such exceptions to determine if they should be added to the formulary.
