VA-2026-VBA-0133 VA Veteran Readiness and Employment Program: Improving Development and Delivery of Individualized Rehabilitation Plans (AS92) Rulemaking 2026-07-07T12:28:01Z 0b000064b92c62a5 2900-AS92 The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) proposes to amend the regulations pertaining to the Veteran Readiness and Employment (VR&E) Chapter 31 program to ensure the planning of rehabilitation programs for eligible veterans and dependents is based on information from current treatment providers and not individuals on a panel who never treated the veteran or dependent. Current regulations require consultation with a panel of individuals who are not involved in the direct care or treatment of the veteran or dependent.
