Not later than 270 days after the date of the enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Veterans Affairs shall complete a gap analysis throughout the entire health care system of the Veterans Health Administration on the use and availability of psychotherapeutic interventions recommended in widely used clinical practice guidelines as recommended in the final report of the COVER Commission submitted under section 931(e)(2) of the Jason Simcakoski Memorial and Promise Act (title IX of Public Law 114–198 ; 38 U.S.C. 1701 note). The gap analysis required under subsection
(a)shall include the following: An assessment of the psychotherapeutic interventions available and routinely delivered to veterans at medical centers of the Department of Veterans Affairs within each Veterans Integrated Service Network of the Department. An assessment of the barriers faced by medical centers of the Department in offering certain psychotherapeutic interventions and why those interventions are not widely implemented or are excluded from implementation throughout the entire health care system of the Veterans Health Administration. Not later than 180 days after completing the gap analysis under subsection (a), the Secretary shall submit to the Committee on Veterans’ Affairs of the Senate and the Committee on Veterans’ Affairs of the House of Representatives— a report on the results of the analysis; and a plan with measurable, time-limited steps for the Department to implement— to address the gaps that limit access of veterans to care; and to treat various mental health conditions across the entire health care system of the Veterans Health Administration.
