This bill extends a federal program that allows the Department of Defense and Department of Veterans Affairs to jointly operate and test medical facilities. The legislation extends the authority for this demonstration fund by one year, moving the deadline from September 30, 2024 to September 30, 2025. The bill affects military personnel, veterans, and the two departments involved in running these shared medical facilities. No new funding is specified in the legislation, as it simply extends existing authority rather than creating a new program. The bill was introduced in July 2024 and referred to the House Armed Services Committee and Veterans' Affairs Committee for consideration.
