Ensuring Continuity in Veterans Health Act
This bill (S 540) is procedural and adds a new "Continuity of care" provision to the Veterans Community Care Program under Section 1703(d)(2) of Title 38, U.S. Code. It does not describe specific policy changes or mechanisms, as the bill text only specifies the addition of the new subsection without detailing its content. The bill directly affects veterans enrolled in the Community Care Program by requiring consideration of continuity of care, though the exact requirements are not defined in the provided text. As a procedural amendment, it serves as a framework for future implementation rather than enacting immediate changes. Without additional bill text explaining the new provision's requirements, no concrete policy details can be summarized.
