HBOT Access Act of 2025

This bill requires the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to cover hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) as a treatment option for veterans diagnosed with traumatic brain injury (TBI) or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) who have already tried at least two other evidence-based treatments. It directly affects veterans with these conditions who are at high risk of suicide or self-harm, as specified in the bill's findings. The key provision mandates that the VA provide HBOT under VA health care programs without requiring prescription drugs, opioids, or invasive procedures. This policy change expands access to a non-drug treatment option for eligible veterans, focusing on proven alternatives for TBI and PTSD management.
