Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would expand the Department of Veterans Affairs Solid Start program so that it reaches service members who are about to leave the military, not only recent veterans. The VA would coordinate with the Department of Defense and give priority to members between 120 and 210 days before separation. The VA would call each such member at least once in that window, regardless of separation type or characterization of service, to explain transitional health care and share contact information for the nearest VA facility and for an accredited representative who can help file a disability claim. The VA would also collect Defense Department suicide prevention resources to share with members in crisis, and could use text or email to schedule calls or reach members it cannot reach by phone.
