30 days

Today, Congresswoman Ginny Brown-Waite will testify before the House Veterans Affairs Subcommittee on Health. She will present her legislation, H.R.5622, which would require standard access to health care for veterans seeking primary care within 30 days. This bill allow veterans the ability to use a non-VA facility if the VA cannot meet the 30 days from first point of contact. The VA would also be held responsible for the cost of non-VA medical care.
