**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. - Veterans and families: Could get more options for in-home and supportive care because the VA could arrange services through nurse registries.
