Veterans Affairs Transfer of Information and Sharing of Disability Examination Procedures With DOD Doctors Act

This bill requires military separation physical exams to be conducted by VA-certified doctors when a service member has or may have a condition affecting VA disability benefits. It makes the disability eligibility determination from this exam binding for the VA when assigning a disability rating. The bill also mandates a joint DOD-VA system for sharing medical and personnel records between the two departments. These changes directly affect service members separating from the military and streamline the process for VA disability claims.
