Furthermore, the bill includes measures to improve the training and oversight of fiduciaries to prevent future misuse of benefits. It requires the Secretary to establish a program to provide training and support to fiduciaries, as well as implement a system for monitoring and evaluating their performance. Overall, the goal of Bill 119 hr 1912 is to ensure that veterans receive the benefits they are entitled to and that those benefits are protected from misuse by fiduciaries. By improving the repayment process and increasing oversight of fiduciaries, the bill aims to safeguard the financial well-being of veterans who rely on these benefits.
