VA National Formulary Act of 2025

Introduced·12/10/25

VA National Formulary Act of 2025 improves the Department of Veterans Affairs' national formulary management.

The VA National Formulary Act of 2025 amends title 38 of the United States Code to enhance the administration of the Department of Veterans Affairs' national formulary. It mandates the establishment of a national formulary, managed by the Pharmacy Benefits Management Service, which includes a list of all drugs available by prescription through VA medical facilities. The act requires regular therapeutic class reviews to maintain an up-to-date formulary, with a process for clinicians to request nonformulary drugs when medically necessary.
