Servicemember Mental Health Support Act of 2023

This bill requires the Secretary of Defense to submit a report within 180 days of enactment detailing current military mental health care referral policies and analyzing the impact of removing primary care referral requirements for outpatient mental health services. The report must specifically examine effects on military readiness, service member uptake of mental health care, and suicide prevention. It also mandates recommendations to improve access to outpatient mental health services, encourage their use by service members, and maintain military readiness. The bill directly affects active-duty members of the Armed Forces by focusing on how referral policies impact their access to mental health support.
