AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill changes federal law on the data the Secretary of Defense must post on a Department of Defense website about military medical treatment facilities. The posted data would have to include the core performance metrics the Secretary adopted under a 2016 defense law. It would also have to include the average number of days between when a patient books an appointment at a military medical treatment facility and the date of that appointment. In addition, it would have to include the percentage of referrals to another health care facility that are made within one business day after the patient contacted the military facility.
