Mammography Access for Veterans Act of 2025
Refreshed 1 h ago
Introduced 2026-02-05Topic: veterans militarySummary
AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would make the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) telescreening mammography pilot program a permanent program by removing the word "pilot" and removing a subsection of the existing law. It would set a reporting date of May 1, 2027, in place of a date tied to the end of the program. Within two years, the VA would have to offer at least one mammography option in every State and Puerto Rico: the telescreening program, a full-service mammography program at a VA facility, or a mobile mammography program. These programs would have to be accessible to veterans with paralysis, spinal cord injuries or disorders, or other disabilities. The bill also states that the VA may expand telescreening mammography to other VA facilities.
