Veterans

This bill updates Wyoming's rules for burying veterans without funds. It allows counties to seek reimbursement from the Department of Family Services for preparing and transporting indigent veterans' bodies, clarifying that veterans eligible for burial assistance under POWER/Medicaid programs also qualify for county payments. The bill increases the maximum burial expense payment from $1,000 to $1,500 and specifies that county payments are a "last resort" after other benefits are exhausted. It directly affects counties handling veterans' burials, the Department of Family Services, and indigent veterans who served in conflicts like WWII, Korea, or Vietnam.
