Review Every Veterans Claim Act of 2025
HR 2137, the Review Every Veterans Claim Act of 2025, prevents the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) from denying benefit claims solely because a veteran misses a required medical exam. It amends Section 5103A of Title 38, U.S. Code, to prohibit automatic denials for missed exams and requires the VA to consider other factors. This directly affects veterans filing claims for VA benefits who skip scheduled medical evaluations. The bill ensures veterans cannot be rejected for a claim based only on non-attendance, while allowing denials for other valid reasons.
