Veterans Medicare Premium Transparency Act requires Medicare handbooks to explain how VA enrollment affects Medicare premiums.
The Veterans Medicare Premium Transparency Act amends title XVIII of the Social Security Act to mandate that the Medicare & You handbook and Medicare.gov provide information on how enrollment in the Department of Veterans Affairs' patient enrollment system impacts Medicare premiums. The bill also requires the Secretary of Health and Human Services and the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to submit a report to Congress within 180 days of enactment, summarizing updates to relevant publications and estimating the number of veterans affected by these premium changes.
