Whole Health for Veterans Act

HR 6848, the Whole Health for Veterans Act, eliminates copayments for Whole Health well-being services provided by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). The bill requires the VA to cover these services - such as wellness coaching, meditation, yoga, and skill-building courses - without out-of-pocket costs for most veterans, with a maximum $30 monthly copayment allowed for some. Priority groups 1-5 (veterans already exempt under current policy) remain fully exempt, while other veterans may face the $30 cap. This policy change directly affects all VA-enrolled veterans seeking these non-medical wellness services.
