The proposed bill, if enacted, would update current statutes by appropriating $3,640,000 from the state General Fund for fiscal year 2026-2027 to the Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy for Military Veterans Fund. This fund is designed to provide financial assistance to veterans seeking hyperbaric oxygen therapy, and the appropriation aims to enhance the resources available for this purpose.
The bill introduces new language that specifies the amount and source of the appropriation, as well as the fiscal year in which it will take effect. The existing framework for the fund, including its administration by the Arizona Department of Veterans' Services and the role of the Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy for Military Veterans Advisory Committee, remains unchanged.
