VA Emergency Transportation Act

Summary

The bill changes the law so veterans can be paid back for the cost of emergency transport, such as ambulance or air‑ambulance, when they need to go to a Department of Veterans Affairs or other federal medical center. It updates the definition of “emergency services” to include both treatment and transportation and applies to non‑VA providers. The goal is to lower out‑of‑pocket expenses for veterans facing urgent medical situations.
