Faster Care for Veterans Act

Amy Klobuchar supports the Faster Care for Veterans Act, which she introduced with Senator Joni Ernst. The bill would establish a pilot program allowing veterans to use mobile devices or the internet to schedule, change, and confirm outpatient and specialty-care appointments at VA medical facilities. Veterans could schedule appointments 24 hours a day and immediately take appointments canceled by others, with the aim of using available appointment slots and reducing wait times.
