VSAFE Act of 2024
The VSAFE Act of 2023 (HR 6452) establishes a new "Veterans Scam and Fraud Evasion Officer" within the Department of Veterans Affairs. This position focuses on preventing fraud against veterans, their families, caregivers, and survivors by creating communication plans, developing reporting guidelines, monitoring fraud metrics, and coordinating with other federal agencies like the IRS and DOJ. The bill does not create new benefits or increase staffing, instead directing the Department to improve existing fraud prevention efforts through standardized training and cross-agency collaboration.
