Veterans Full-Service Care and Access Act of 2025

This bill makes sure every veteran living in the 48 mainland states can get hospital care close to home. It requires that each state have at least one full-service VA hospital or, if not, that the VA arrange comparable care with a local non-VA hospital inside that state.

Key points:

• Who is affected: Veterans in the 48 contiguous states, especially those in states without a full-service VA hospital.
• What changes: The VA must provide access to at least one full-service VA hospital in each state or secure similar in-state hospital services through contracts with local providers.
• Why it matters: It aims to cut long travel times and improve access to full hospital care for veterans where they live.
