Veterans Transplant Coverage Act of 2016
This bill authorizes the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to: (1) provide for an operation on a live donor to carry out a transplant procedure for an eligible veteran notwithstanding that the live donor may not be eligible for VA health care, and (2) provide for such an operation at a VA or a non-VA facility.
The VA shall furnish to such a donor any care or services that may be required before and after conducting with such procedure.
