S 3988 United States Senate · 119th Congress

Veterans STAND Act

This bill requires the Department of Veterans Affairs to provide annual preventative health evaluations to veterans with spinal cord injuries or disorders who choose to participate. These evaluations will assess risks for health complications, chronic pain management, dietary needs, prosthetic equipment functionality, and access to assistive technologies like powered mobility devices and neuromodulation systems. The Secretary of Veterans Affairs must consult with medical specialists and technology manufacturers when developing rules for these evaluations and must report annually to Congress on how many veterans receive these services and what assistive technologies are prescribed.
