VA Mental Health Outreach and Engagement Act

This bill requires the VA to offer veterans receiving disability compensation for service-connected mental health conditions at least one annual mental health consultation to assess needs and discuss care options. It also mandates VA outreach about available mental health services, including the consultations themselves. The law adds a requirement for the VA to conduct this annual outreach, directly affecting veterans already receiving such disability benefits. A separate provision directs the GAO to report within two years on how many veterans received these consultations and any barriers they faced.
