S.585

Servicemember to Veteran Health Care Connection Act of 2025

Introduced·2/13/25

Servicemember to Veteran Health Care Connection Act of 2025 streamlines enrollment for veterans transitioning from military to civilian life.

The Servicemember to Veteran Health Care Connection Act of 2025 aims to improve the transition of service members to veterans by establishing a pre-transition health care registration system. This system will facilitate enrollment in the Department of Veterans Affairs' patient enrollment system. The bill mandates the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to automatically register service members in this system 180 days before their anticipated separation. It also requires outreach to these members to explain the registration process and steps for enrollment post-separation.
