Relating to the development and implementation of a veterans health care coverage program to assist certain veterans in obtaining health care coverage.

HB 4639 creates a Veterans Health Care Coverage Program to help eligible Texas veterans obtain health care coverage, including mental health services, by securing federal funds. The program targets veterans aged 19 to 64 who are Texas residents, not eligible for Medicaid as of December 31, 2024, and for whom federal funding is available. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission will administer the program, promote it to reach eligible veterans, and coordinate with employment programs, though it does not guarantee coverage as it depends on federal funding availability.
