Creates a special postage stamp to help pay down veterans' medical debt.

This bill would create a special postage stamp called the "Veterans Medical Debt Relief Stamp." People could buy this stamp to help pay off medical debt for veterans. All money from stamp sales would go to the Department of Veterans Affairs to reduce veterans' copayment and coinsurance bills.

What Would Change

Today, there is no specific postage stamp dedicated to raising funds for veterans' medical debt relief. If this bill passes, the U.S. Postal Service would issue a "Veterans Medical Debt Relief Stamp" every year by Veterans Day. All money from these sales would go to the Department of Veterans Affairs. The VA would use it to pay down veterans' unresolved copayment and coinsurance medical bills.
