Plain-English Summary

This resolution recognizes the necessity of community care for veterans and affirms that it complements the mission of the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). The resolution urges the VA to implement the letter and spirit of the VA Mission Act of 2018, which establishes the Veterans Community Care Program, to ensure veterans have timely access to community providers when the VA cannot meet their needs. Further, the resolution reaffirms the commitment of the Senate to timely, quality, affordable, veteran-centered care.
