Schedule for Rating Disabilities: The Hematologic and Lymphatic Systems
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) proposes to amend the portion of the VA Schedule for Rating Disabilities (Rating Schedule) that addresses the hematologic and lymphatic systems. The intended effect of this change is to incorporate medical advances that have occurred since the last review, update medical terminology, add medical conditions not currently in the Rating Schedule, and refine criteria for further clarity and ease of rater application.
Equal Protection of the Laws for Faith-Based and Community Organizations
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) proposes to amend its existing regulations concerning VA Homeless Providers Grant and Per Diem Program (GPD) and Supportive Service for Veterans Families Program (SSVF) and to establish a new part. More specifically, VA proposes to revise provisions that apply to religious organizations that receive financial assistance from VA in order to more clearly distinguish between ``direct'' and ``indirect'' financial assistance, amend VA's regulations to replace the term ``inherently religious activities'' with the term ``explicitly religious activities'', and establish new provisions that provide valuable protections for beneficiaries, provide guidance to VA employees and faith-based and other neighborhood organizations that receive ``direct'' or ``indirect'' VA financial assistance, and provide clear and uniform instructions on the fundamental principles that apply to their awards.
