H.R. 1058, VA Provider Equity Act 1 (July 24, 2017)

handle is hein.congrec/cbo3726 and id is 1 raw text is: CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE COST ESTIMATE July 24, 2017 H.R. 1058 would extend the current limitation on pension amounts that can be paid to certain veterans who receive benefits from Medicaid. The bill also would effectively increase the salary for podiatrists employed by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). CBO estimates that enacting the bill would decrease direct spending by $552 million over the 2017-2027 period. CBO also estimates that implementing the bill would cost $53 million over the 2017-2022 period, assuming appropriation of the necessary amounts. Because enacting the bill would affect direct spending, pay-as-you-go procedures apply. Enacting the bill would not affect revenues. CBO estimates that enacting H.R. 1058 would not increase net direct spending or on-budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2028. H.R. 1058 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA). ESTIMATED COST TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT The estimated budgetary effects of H.R. 1058 are shown in the following table. The costs of this legislation fall within budget functions 700 (veterans benefits and services) and 550 (health).
