Lets veterans get VA medical care outside the U.S. even without a service-connected disability.
This bill would make it easier for veterans living or traveling outside the U.S. to get medical care through the Department of Veterans Affairs. Currently, they can only get this care for injuries or illnesses directly linked to their military service. This bill would remove that requirement and also make it simpler to get reimbursed for care through electronic payments.
Today, veterans living or traveling outside of a U.S. state can only get VA medical care for conditions directly linked to their military service. If this bill becomes law, they would be able to get VA care for any medical need, regardless of whether it's service-connected. The VA would also offer electronic payments for reimbursements, making the process quicker.
