What it does
The Produce Prescriptions for Veterans Act would amend title 38 of the United States Code to authorize the Department of Veterans Affairs to provide produce prescriptions—such as vouchers or debit cards for purchasing fruits and vegetables—to veterans with diet-related chronic conditions who are food-insecure. The bill defines a produce prescription as a service aimed at improving such health conditions through better access to nutritious food. It affects eligible veterans by expanding VA medical services to include this nutritional support benefit. The legislation was introduced in the House and referred to the Subcommittee on Health within the Committee on Veterans' Affairs.
