The bill would
  * Expand primary care for female veterans
  * Increase the amount of health care provided to newborn children
  * Pay for emergency transportation for newborn children to receive neonatal care
  * Provide counseling in retreat settings to veterans and their dependents

Estimated budgetary effects would primarily stem from
  * Hiring additional primary care physicians to provide services to female veterans
  * Paying for additional days of medical care for complicated births

Areas of significant uncertainty include
  * Estimating the number of physicians the Department of Veterans Affairs would hire to provide primary care
     services for female veterans and the amount of time needed to hire those staff
  * Projecting the number of complicated births
