Protects veterans from health care billing errors by sharing data between agencies.
This bill would help protect veterans from confusing and incorrect health care bills. It would direct the Department of Veterans Affairs to work with the Department of Health and Human Services to share information. This way, they can prevent billing errors for veterans who use both VA health care and Medicare or Medicaid.
Currently, the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) do not have a required agreement to share data about veterans. This includes veterans who use both VA health care and Medicare or Medicaid programs. If this bill becomes law, the VA would be directed to seek an agreement with HHS within one year to share information. This would allow both agencies to identify veterans enrolled in both systems and work to prevent incorrect or duplicate health care bills.
