HR 3767 Passed House — in Senate

Sponsored by Abraham J. Hamadeh (R)

Health Professionals Scholarship Program Improvement Act of 2025

Requires VA to hire Health Professionals Scholarship Program participants within 90 days of graduation through 2027.

Tradeoff

Ensures VA scholarship participants get employment contracts quickly at VA facilities with the greatest staffing need. Also bans smoking in all VA health facilities.

What's in it

See official bill text

Less than $500,000 over 2025-2030 for reporting requirements; no net change in federal spending.

The $500,000 is purely the federal administrative cost to produce semiannual reports to Congress; the bill's main policy effects (employment contracting timelines and smoking prohibition) impose no net federal spending because VA already follows these practices.
