This bill, the Territorial Response and Access to Veterans’ Essential Lifecare Act (TRAVEL Act), allows the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to temporarily assign physicians to provide healthcare services to veterans in U.S. territories and possessions. Specifically, it authorizes the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to send VA doctors to locations like American Samoa, Guam, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands for up to one year at a time. The bill also establishes a relocation or retention bonus for these traveling physicians and ensures coordination with local medical providers to deliver comprehensive care.
