AI Summary
This bill, the Veterans Affairs Peer Review Neutrality Act of 2023, aims to eliminate conflicts of interest in the conduct of quality management and administrative investigations by the Veterans Health Administration (VHA). It requires individuals involved in peer review or administrative investigations to withdraw from cases where they have direct involvement or are unable to be objective. The bill also limits the time a director of a VHA medical center can be detailed to a different position, requiring the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to notify Congress, appoint an acting director, and eventually either return the director to their position or begin the process of hiring a new director. The bill seeks to ensure impartiality and transparency in the VHA's quality management and administrative processes.
