Autonomy for All Disabled Veterans Act

This bill would raise the maximum amount the Department of Veterans Affairs pays disabled veterans for home improvements and structural changes provided as part of home health services. One cap would rise from $6,800 to $10,000, and another cap would rise from $2,000 to $10,000. The higher amounts would apply to veterans who first apply for this benefit on or after the date the bill becomes law, and veterans who already used up their benefit before then would not get more. Starting each fiscal year, the dollar amounts would be raised by the percentage increase in a residential home construction cost index, and would stay the same if that index does not go up.
