Bill overview
The Acupuncture for Our Heroes Act of 2019 aims to expand access to acupuncture services for veterans enrolled in the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) healthcare system. The bill requires the VA to establish a program offering qualified acupuncturists at VA facilities nationwide, both in urban and rural areas.

Finally, the legislation includes administrative and regulatory changes to support the program’s implementation.
