Summary
Amends the Federal veterans' benefits provisions to require any non-Federal provider of hospital services to any Medicare beneficiary to also accept Veterans Administration (VA) beneficiaries on a similar basis, and to accept payments from the VA as payments in full. Requires the Administrator of Veterans Affairs to report to the Secretary of Health and Human Services any noncompliance with health care provision agreements by such a non-Federal provider. Authorizes the Secretary to then terminate such agreement after a finding of noncompliance.
