Bill 118 s 3841, also known as the VA Report on Proposed CMS Staffing Ratios Act, is a piece of legislation introduced in the US Congress. The purpose of this bill is to require the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to submit a report to Congress on the impact of proposed staffing ratios by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) on VA medical facilities.
The bill specifically mandates that the report must include an analysis of how the proposed staffing ratios would affect the ability of VA medical facilities to provide quality care to veterans. It also requires the VA to provide recommendations on how to address any potential challenges or barriers that may arise as a result of the proposed staffing ratios.
Overall, the VA Report on Proposed CMS Staffing Ratios Act aims to ensure that veterans continue to receive high-quality care at VA medical facilities, even in the face of potential changes to staffing ratios proposed by CMS. This bill highlights the importance of maintaining adequate staffing levels to meet the needs of our nation's veterans.
