The purpose of this legislation is to improve the coordination between the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to prevent issues related to billing and payments for medical services provided to veterans. Specifically, it aims to avoid situations where veterans are billed multiple times or incorrectly for hospital care and medical services they receive. Key provisions of the legislation include a requirement for the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to establish a memorandum of understanding with the Secretary of Health and Human Services.
