Bill overview
This bill, the Foreign Medical Program Modernization Act of 2024, aims to make it easier for veterans to access medical care abroad through the Department of Veterans Affairs’ Foreign Medical Program. Currently, veterans needed a service-connected disability to qualify for this program. The bill removes this requirement, allowing more veterans to receive care outside of their state. It also includes provisions to modernize the payment system and explore establishing a network of non-Department entities to provide these services.
