Summary

Expands the Veterans Community Care Program to recognize nurse registries as eligible providers. It would define what a nurse registry is, list the types of staff registries place, and require applicable State licensure for participation.

  • Home health workers and registries: Registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, certified nursing assistants, home health aides, companions, and homemakers placed through registries would be explicitly covered as provider types eligible under the program.
  • VA program rules: Adds a statutory definition of "nurse registry" and clarifies the scope of services registries may coordinate or provide under the Veterans Community Care Program.
