Standardizes medical credentials for military and VA doctors, making it easier for them to work in both systems.
This bill would require the Department of Defense and the Department of Veterans Affairs to choose one existing system to track medical providers' qualifications. This shared system would make it easier for doctors and other medical staff to work in both military and VA healthcare, helping them serve veterans and service members more efficiently.
Today, the Department of Defense and the Department of Veterans Affairs use separate systems for tracking medical provider credentials. This makes it hard to share information. If this bill passes, these departments would jointly choose and put into use one shared system by January 1, 2027. This would make it much easier to share provider information.
