AR 83 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Urges Congress to require VA hospitals to provide all routine screenings for women veterans on-site at each hospital.

This New Jersey Assembly Resolution urges Congress to require VA hospitals to provide all routine medical screenings for women veterans on-site at each facility. Currently, women veterans often must travel to external providers for screenings like mammograms or Pap tests, adding time and cost to their care. The resolution requests federal action to eliminate this burden by ensuring VA hospitals can offer all necessary screenings internally through adequate funding. It does not create new law but advocates for a policy change in VA care access.
