S 4437 United States Senate · 118th Congress

Coordinating Care for Senior Veterans and Wounded Warriors Act

This bill establishes a 3-year pilot program to coordinate healthcare between the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and Medicare for veterans enrolled in both systems. It directly affects "covered veterans" (those using both VA care and Medicare), assigning each a case manager to develop personalized care plans and navigate both systems. Key mechanisms include tracking metrics like care costs, quality, patient satisfaction, and eliminating service gaps, while requiring quarterly reports to Congress on program progress. The pilot will operate in 3-5 diverse VA locations (including rural and medically underserved areas) to test improved care coordination.
