Blackburn, Hassan introduce bipartisan bill to improve access to specialty care for female veterans
U.S. Senators Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) and Maggie Hassan (D-N.H.) have introduced the Women Veterans Specialty Care Access Act, a bipartisan bill that would allow female veterans to directly schedule appointments for women's specialty care, including gynecology, obstetrics, maternity, and postpartum care, without first obtaining a referral from a VA primary care provider.
