Summary

Veterans Drug Abuse Rehabilitation Act - Permits the Administrator of Veterans' Affairs to furnish hospital care and medical services for the treatment of drug or alcohol addiction or drug or alcohol dependency to eligible veterans and members of their immediate families who request such care or service. Provides that, if the Administrator determines it necessary to the effective treatment of any eligible veteran applying for treatment under the provisions of this Act, he may require, as a condition to providing such treatment, that such veteran agree in writing to make himself available for such treatment for such minimum period of time and on such terms and conditions as the Administrator may prescribe. Allows the Administrator to refuse further treatment under this Act to any veteran who violates the terms of any agreement entered into with the Administrator.
