Bill overview
This bill proposes changes to how the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) pays healthcare providers participating in the Community Care Program. It aims to adjust payment rates based on where the care or services are actually provided, rather than the provider’s headquarters location. Specifically, the VA will establish different rates for inpatient hospitals, outpatient departments, ambulatory surgical centers, and physician offices, ensuring geographic specificity. The changes will go into effect on January 1, 2026.
