Currently, private health care providers are treating brain injury patients with new and innovative treatments with remarkable results. Surprisingly, many of these treatments are not currently available within military and veteran medical facilities for our heroes suffering from traumatic brain injuries. In an effort to fix this delinquency, I introduced the TBI Treatment Act (H.R. 396) in January, and am offering it as an amendment today. The TBI Treatment Act establishes a 5-year ``pay-for-performance'' pilot program. Private health care providers are authorized and reimbursed to provide proven treatments to active duty soldiers and veterans at no cost to the patient.

I ask that everyone in this House to join me in supporting this amendment to NDAA.
