| 2012-30811 | VA Health Professional Scholarship and Visual Impairment and Orientation and Mobility Professional Scholarship Programs | Proposed Rule | The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) proposes to amend its VA Health Professional Scholarship Program (HPSP) regulations. VA also proposes to establish regulations for a new program, the Visual Impairment and Orientation and Mobility Professional Scholarship Program (VIOMPSP). These proposed regulations would comply with and implement sections 302 and 603 of the Caregivers and Veterans Omnibus Health Services Act of 2010 (the 2010 Act). Section 302 of the 2010 Act established the VIOMPSP, which authorizes VA to provide financial assistance to certain students seeking a degree in visual impairment or orientation or mobility, in order to increase the supply of qualified blind rehabilitation specialists for VA and the United States. Section 603 of the 2010 Act reauthorized and modified HPSP, a program that provides scholarships for education or training in certain healthcare occupations. | 2012-12-26 | 2012 | 12 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2012/12/26/2012-30811/va-health-professional-scholarship-and-visual-impairment-and-orientation-and-mobility-professional | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2012-12-26/pdf/2012-30811.pdf | Veterans Affairs Department | 520 | The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) proposes to amend its VA Health Professional Scholarship Program (HPSP) regulations.
