Honor Our Promise to Veterans Act of 2025
This bill addresses the provision of care at the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), including regarding scheduling, non-VA provider requirements, staffing, and infrastructure.
Regarding scheduling, the VA must (1) ensure appointments for urgent and nonurgent care for veterans are scheduled within certain time frames, and (2) provide information about driving and wait times for care at VA facilities, Veteran Community Care Program (VCCP) facilities, and via telehealth.
The bill also addresses requirements for non-VA providers under the VCCP, including by (1) extending the time limit for providers to submit claims to the VA for payment, (2) requiring certain training relevant to veterans, and (3) authorizing the Office of Inspector General of the VA to audit entities providing care under the VA’s authority.
The bill provides compensation for veterans who are disabled or die due to VCCP hospital care, medical services, or extended care services.
The bill addresses VA staffing matters, including by (1) removing the cap on pay limitation waivers for critical health care personnel, (2) offering certain retirement benefits to VA police officers, (3) requiring the VA to establish a telework policy, and (4) establishing scholarship programs for certain individuals in medical or infrastructure programs who commit to a period of obligated service at the VA.
