RIN 2900–AP55
Medical Care in Foreign Countries and
Filing for Reimbursement for
Community Care Not Previously
Authorized by VA
Department of Veterans Affairs.
Final rule.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
The Department of Veterans
Affairs (VA) adopts as final, with no
changes, a proposed rule amending its
medical regulations related to hospital
care and medical services in foreign
countries. We simplified and clarified
the scope of these regulations, address
medical services provided to eligible
veterans in the Republic of the
Philippines, and removed provisions
related to grants to the Republic of the
Philippines that are no longer supported
by statutory authority. VA also amends
its medical regulations related to filing
claims for reimbursement of medical
expenses incurred for VA care not
previously authorized. We provided a
60-day period to receive comments from
the public on the proposed changes, and
received no comments. VA adopts the
proposed rule as final, with no changes.
DATES: This final rule is effective July
25, 2018.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section
1724 of title 38 United States Code
(U.S.C.) prohibits VA from furnishing
hospital care or medical services outside
any State except under specific
circumstances. VA is authorized under
38 U.S.C. 1724(b)(1) to furnish care and
services to an eligible veteran outside
any State if VA ‘‘determines that such

care and services are needed for the
treatment of a service-connected
disability of the veteran or as part of a
rehabilitation program under chapter 31
of this title.’’ VA furnishes health care
to eligible veterans in the Republic of
the Philippines under this authority. In
addition, 38 U.S.C. 1724(c) provides
that ‘‘within the limits’’ of the Veterans
Memorial Medical Center at Manila,
Republic of the Philippines, VA may
enter into contracts to furnish necessary
hospital care to a veteran for any nonservice-connected disability if such
veteran is unable to defray the expenses
of necessary hospital care. VA may also
operate an outpatient clinic in the
Republic of the Philippines to furnish
necessary medical services to a veteran
who has a service-connected disability.
38 U.S.C. 1724(e). Several sections of
title 38 Code of Federal Regulations
(CFR) part 17 address VA’s authority to
provide for hospital care and medical
services for eligible veterans outside the
United States, as well as submission of
claims for reimbursement for services
obtained from community care
providers outside the United States.
On January 31, 2018, VA proposed to
revise or amend these regulations to
consolidate similar content, clarify
provisions, and ensure that these
regulations reflect current VA practice
and statutory authority. (83 FR 4454).
We proposed simplifying language in
§ 17.35 to make it easier to understand,
adding a new paragraph (b) to address
hospital care and outpatient services
provided to eligible veterans in the
Republic of the Philippines as
authorized in 38 U.S.C. 1724, and
paragraph (c) to provide guidance on
which sections of part 17 apply to
claims for payment or reimbursement of
services not previously authorized by
the Foreign Medical Program. We
proposed amending § 17.125 which
focuses on filing claims. We proposed
stating that in those cases where VA
payment for such services has not been
authorized in advance, claims for
payment for such health care services
provided in a State should be submitted
to the VA medical facility nearest to
where those services were provided. We
also proposed amending that section to
provide specific guidance on where and
how to file claims.
We proposed removing §§ 17.140 and
17.141 as the subject matter of
delegation of authority would be
covered by proposed revisions to
§ 17.125. Finally, we proposed removing
§§ 17.350 through 17.370 which
addressed grants to the Republic of the
Philippines, as our authority to provide
these grants under 38 U.S.C. 1732(b) has
expired. VA still retains authority under
PO 00000
Frm 00011
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700

38 U.S.C. 1731 to assist the Republic of
the Philippines in fulfilling its
responsibility in providing medical care
and treatment for Commonwealth Army
veterans and new Philippine Scouts in
need of such care and treatment for
service-connected disabilities and nonservice-connected disabilities under
certain conditions.
We provided a 60-day period to the
public to comment on the proposed
rule. The comment period closed April
2, 2018, and we received no comments.
Based on the rationale set forth in the
proposed rule and in this document, VA
is adopting the provisions of the
proposed rule as a final rule with no
changes.
Effect of Rulemaking
Title 38 of the Code of Federal
Regulations, as revised by this final
rulemaking, represents VA’s
implementation of its legal authority on
this subject. Other than future
amendments to this regulation or
governing statutes, no contrary guidance
or procedures are authorized. All
existing or subsequent VA guidance
must be read to conform with this
rulemaking if possible or, if not
possible, such guidance is superseded
by this rulemaking.
Paperwork Reduction Act
This final rule contains no provisions
constituting a collection of information
under the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501–3521).
Regulatory Flexibility Act
The Secretary hereby certifies that
this final regulatory amendment does
not have a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities
as they are defined in the Regulatory
Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601–612. This
rulemaking does not directly affect any
small entities. Only VA beneficiaries
and certain community care providers
would be directly affected. Therefore,
pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 605(b), this
amendment is be exempt from the
initial and final regulatory flexibility
analysis requirements of sections 603
and 604.
Executive Orders 12866, 13563, and
13771
Executive Orders 12866 and 13563
direct agencies to assess the costs and
benefits of available regulatory
alternatives and, when regulation is
necessary, to select regulatory
approaches that maximize net benefits
(including potential economic,
environmental, public health and safety
effects, and other advantages;
distributive impacts; and equity).
