Autonomy for Disabled Veterans Act
This bill increases funding for home modifications for veterans with service-connected disabilities. It raises the maximum VA payment from $6,800 to $10,000 per modification, depending on when a veteran applied for benefits (before or after the law's enactment). The payment amount will adjust annually based on construction cost changes, and veterans can receive no more than three modifications total. The law directly affects disabled veterans needing home accessibility improvements under VA home health services.
