Veterans Affairs discretionary budget authority
From the OMB Public Budget Database — clean, summable, and the figure to cite for an agency total. It is the whole of Veterans Affairs's discretionary request, not a total of the parsed lines above, and this page never adds the two together.
What this funds
Funds health care for Veterans and other beneficiaries delivered at non-VA facilities through the Veterans Community Care Program, CHAMPVA, and community care contracts, including the Community Care Network.
Extracted from Veterans Affairs Programs, p. 78. Verbatim; nothing here is paraphrased.
