Bill overview
This bill, the Review Every Veterans Claim Act of 2023, aims to ensure that veterans’ claims for benefits are not automatically denied simply because they missed a scheduled medical examination. It restricts the Secretary of Veterans Affairs’ ability to deny a claim solely on the basis of a veteran’s failure to attend a required medical appointment. The legislation seeks to provide a fairer process for veterans seeking benefits by requiring the VA to explore alternative ways to obtain necessary medical information before denying a claim. This will help prevent claims from being unfairly rejected due to missed appointments.
