Abstract
The Veterans Programs Enhancement Act of 1998 authorized the payment of accelerated benefits to terminally ill persons insured under Servicemembers' Group Life Insurance (SGLI) or Veterans' Group Life Insurance (VGLI). This document amends the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) regulations to establish a mechanism for implementing these statutory provisions.
