HR 1656, TREAT PTSD Act, will require the Department of Veterans Affairs and the Department of Defense to furnish enrolled members and veterans of the Armed Forces who have been diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder with stellate ganglion blocks, should they elect to have them. Serving our nation in the Armed Forces is an incredibly taxing job both physically and psychologically. As such, we strongly believe that active duty members and veterans deserve the best quality of care that our country can provide. The stellate ganglion block treatment is a new but effective method for treatment of PTSD. This bill is a step towards the more complete care that our military and veterans deserve for whatever ailments they have incurred in service to our country.
Please contact your Member of Congress and Senators and ask them to co-sponsor this bill.
