What this bill does
In plain words · AI-written from the official summaryCoordinating care for dual-enrolled veterans
Right now, some veterans get health care from both Medicare and the VA, which can mean their care isn't well coordinated between the two systems. This bill would have the VA run a three-year test program to better coordinate, navigate, and manage care and benefits for these veterans who are enrolled in both programs.
How it affects you
If you're a veteran enrolled in both Medicare and VA health care, this pilot program could make it easier to get the care and benefits you need by having the VA help coordinate everything in one place instead of juggling two separate systems.
