Why This Matters

This bill makes it easier for State Veterans Homes to get certified for Medicare and Medicaid by recognizing certain approvals from the Department of Veterans Affairs. This is important because it helps veterans receive the care they need more quickly.

If you have a family member in a State Veterans Home, they could get better access to medical care sooner.
