This is a bit of a misrepresentation of what is being proposed. Veterans will continue to receive the same care they do now and will not be charged by the VA for their service. If a veteran has a private insurance policy, the private insurer will become the primary insurer for all health care, and so the insurer will have to pay for these costs now. If the individual has no health care, then the VA continues to cover costs as is now. Veterans will not be charged any money.
