Whole Health for Veterans Act

This bill, known as the "Whole Health for Veterans Act," seeks to enhance veterans' access to the Department of Veterans Affairs' Whole Health well-being services by establishing new rules for copayments. Congress expresses its support for the VA's Whole Health program, which encourages proactive health and wellness, and emphasizes the importance of affordable access for all veterans. The legislation amends title 38, United States Code, to generally prohibit copayments for these services, with specific exceptions. It authorizes the Secretary to require a monthly copayment , but this amount may not exceed $30 . Crucially, veterans enrolled in priority groups (1) through (5) are explicitly exempted from making any copayments for these services. The bill defines "Whole Health well-being services" to include both educational and skill-building services, such as coaching and courses, and complementary and integrative health practices like meditation and yoga.
