AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would change federal veterans law to require the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to make sure a suicide prevention coordinator is available at every VA medical center. The coordinator would need to be available, as needed, including outside the medical center's normal operating hours, to handle requests for suicide prevention planning services. The bill states that this requirement does not authorize the VA to hire any additional full-time equivalent positions.
