I appreciate the opportunity, Mr. Chairman, to appear before this Committee to discuss methods and assumptions for estimating the budgetary impact of changing eligibility for veterans' health care. My testimony will begin with some brief comments on eligibility for medical care and on its budgetary status. Most of my testimony will address the Congressional Budget Office's (CBO's) methods and assumptions for cost estimates in general and how they apply to our estimates for eligibility reform.
