Veterans Suicide Prevention and Care Enhancement Act of 2026

Summary

The bill directs the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to certify providers who finish yearly, evidence‑based suicide‑prevention training and to publish a "preferred provider list" for veterans. It applies to all VA‑covered health care providers, including those in community care agreements, and lets providers opt out. The goal is to help veterans more easily find clinicians trained to address suicide risk.
