Description

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) spent an estimated $418 million on Veterans Millennium Health Care and Benefits Act (Millennium Act) emergency care claims in fiscal year 2012 and it projects that annual spending will increase to $580 million by fiscal year 2015. This report reviewed VA's administration of the emergency care benefit under the act. It examines the extent to which (1) selected VA facilities complied with applicable requirements, in particular when denying claims; (2) VA's oversight activities ensure that Millennium Act claims are not inappropriately denied; and (3) veterans understand the Millennium Act emergency care benefit and how VA communicates with non-VA providers about Millennium Act claims. Tables and figures. This is a print on demand report.
