For any care provided abroad, the VA must ensure (1) reimbursements made to veterans and medical providers can be made by direct deposit; and (2) the VA’s mobile applications provide for digital submission, real-time tracking of required forms, and the availability of specified documents associated with care or services, such as a benefits authorization letter.

Further Continuing Appropriations and Disaster Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2025

This bill provides continuing FY2025 appropriations for federal agencies and provides emergency funding for disaster relief. It also extends, modifies, or establishes various programs and authorities throughout the federal government. 

Specifically, the bill provides continuing FY2025 appropriations to federal agencies through the earlier of March 14, 2025, or the enactment of the applicable appropriations act. It is known as a continuing resolution (CR) and prevents a government shutdown that would otherwise occur if the FY2025 appropriations bills have not been enacted when the existing CR expires after December 20, 2024.

The CR funds most programs and activities at the FY2024 levels with several exceptions that provide funding flexibility and additional appropriations for various programs.

The bill provides emergency funding to various federal agencies for assistance related to hurricanes, droughts, floods, and other natural disasters. 

In addition, the bill extends several expiring programs and authorities, including provisions related to 

agriculture;

public health, Medicare, and Medicaid; 

child welfare; 

telecommunications;

protecting certain facilities and assets from unmanned aircraft systems;

cybersecurity; 

foreign affairs;

older Americans; and

workforce development. 

The bill also includes several additional provisions that establish or modify various programs and authorities that address a wide range of policy issues.
