Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would require the Department of Veterans Affairs to organize its health system into eight regional networks, called Veterans Integrated Service Networks (VISNs), by combining the current networks within one year. Each network would have one headquarters, located at a VA medical center, with no more than 50 full-time employees, and the VA would have three years to meet that limit under a workforce plan sent to Congress. Each network's Director would be appointed by the President with Senate approval. Network budgets would have to be balanced at the end of each fiscal year, and the VA would review the network structure at least every three years and report to Congress.
