## Summary

**Build a single, interoperable community integration platform to link veterans with local health and social services.** This bill would create a VA-run pilot that connects veterans, VA staff, and community organizations to coordinate housing, health care, nutrition, jobs, caregiving, legal aid, and other supports. - Veterans and families would get a one-stop coordination tool and routine screening for social needs using standardized ICD-10 codes Z55–Z63 and Z75 to measure severity of needs. - VA staff and community providers would receive technical assistance to join the system and the pilot must run at not fewer than 5 VA medical facilities, with both web and non-web access options for veterans without reliable internet. - States and policy makers would get coordination help with Medicaid through VA and HHS guidance and a template to request or modify Medicaid 1115 waivers, plus program tracking and oversight: a VA report to Congress within 3 years and a Comptroller General evaluation and public report by year 4.
