## Summary

**Creates a pilot to deliver coordinated care for veterans enrolled in both the Medicare program and the VA health system.** The pilot would try to improve access, quality, outcomes, and lower per-person costs by closing gaps and cutting duplicate services. - Covered veterans would be assigned a case manager who makes an individualized needs assessment and a care coordination plan with defined treatment goals to help them navigate VA and Medicare services. - The pilot would operate in 3 to 5 Veterans Integrated Service Networks (VISNs), including rural, highly rural, and medically underserved locations, so participants reflect different geographies and access challenges. - The VA would run the pilot through its Center for Innovation for Care and Payment and would, where practicable, contract with private-sector health programs to help design, implement, and manage care coordination. - The pilot would run for three years and track metrics such as number of participants, use of VA and Medicare services, quality and patient outcomes, cost, access against VA standards, satisfaction, care coordination, service connection status, enrollment priority, types of care, and participant demographics. - The Secretary would be required to report regularly to House and Senate VA committees, starting with design reports and continuing with annual results and a final recommendation at least 180 days before the pilot ends.
