New Mexico Rural Veteran Health Care Access Act

This legislative proposal, titled the "New Mexico Rural Veteran Health Care Access Act" , aims to enhance healthcare access for veterans in specific New Mexico counties. It mandates the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to revise the existing boundaries of the Veterans Integrated Service Networks (VISNs). Specifically, the bill directs that Otero County and Eddy County in New Mexico be incorporated into Veterans Integrated Service Network 17 . This boundary adjustment must be completed within 180 days following the Act's enactment, ensuring a timely integration of these areas into the designated network.
