H.R. 4908 would waive copayments for health care received by Native American veterans through the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). That waiver would take effect one year after enactment.
Under current law, VA waives copayments for veterans in several circumstances:
They have a severe service-connected or catastrophic disability;
Their income is less than certain thresholds; or
They meet other special criteria, such as being a former prisoner of war.
