This bill would require the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to set up a Task Force on Complementary and Integrative Health/Whole Health within 90 days. The task force would include VA officials, researchers, VA clinicians, and representatives of veterans groups and community programs. It would study veterans' access to therapies such as acupuncture, massage, meditation, yoga, and peer-led programs, and develop a way to judge how well these treat PTSD, brain injury, depression, anxiety, and help prevent suicide. The task force would give recommendations to the Secretary within one year and then end, and the Secretary would report to Congress on the recommendations and on a plan to address them.
