Department of Veterans Affairs June 24, 2011 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

This document amends the regulations of the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) concerning the reimbursement of medical care and services delivered to veterans for nonservice-connected conditions. This rule applies in situations where third-party payers are required to reimburse VA for costs related to care provided by VA to a veteran covered under the third-party payer's plan. This final rule adds a new section barring offsets by third-party payers and requires that third- party payers submit a request for a refund for claims when there is an alleged overpayment.
