Long-Term Care Veterans Choice Act This bill authorizes the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to enter into contracts to pay for specified veterans (i.e., certain veterans who have service-connected disabilities and require nursing home care) to be placed in medical foster homes at their request.

Under the bill, no more than a daily average of 900 veterans may have their care in a medical foster home covered by the VA.
