Bill overview
This bill aims to improve the process of determining a veteran’s eligibility for disability benefits by requiring a standardized physical examination for service members transitioning out of the military. Specifically, it mandates that if a service member has a condition that could lead to a VA disability claim, the examination must be conducted by a VA-certified healthcare provider. The examination’s findings will be binding on the VA for disability rating purposes, and the DoD and VA will work together to create a shared system for maintaining medical records.
