Honor Our Promise to Veterans Act of 2025
The Honor Our Promise to Veterans Act of 2025 improves veterans' access to care by requiring the Department of Veterans Affairs to schedule non-urgent appointments within seven days and urgent appointments within 48 hours of a veteran's request. The bill establishes an MST Aware rating program for community care providers who complete specific training on military sexual trauma and women veterans' care, and mandates regular reporting on appointment wait times and provider quality. It also creates new educational programs like "Start and Stay at VA" to recruit and retain healthcare staff, along with requirements for transparent staffing data and improved capital asset management for VA facilities. The legislation includes detailed reporting requirements for VA infrastructure projects and aims to enhance the overall quality and efficiency of veterans' healthcare services.
