What this bill would do

This bill, known as the "Veterans National Traumatic Brain Injury Treatment Act," directs the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to create a pilot program for hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT). The program is intended for veterans suffering from traumatic brain injury or post-traumatic stress disorder. The Secretary will implement this through specific health care providers across two selected Veterans Integrated Service Networks. The program relies on a dedicated fund supported solely by donations. This pilot program is set to terminate three years after the act is enacted. Additionally, the bill requires a GAO report update regarding clinical trials for this therapy.
