     &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Department of Veterans Affairs Continuing Professional Education Modernization Act or the VA CPE Modernization Act&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;This bill modifies the program under which the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) reimburses specified full-time health care professionals for continuing professional education expenses.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Under current law, only board-certified physicians and dentists are eligible for such reimbursement. The bill expands the program to require reimbursement for various specified full-time health care professionals (e.g., registered nurses) and increases the amount available for a physician or dentist. Additionally, the bill removes the requirement that an individual be board-certified to receive reimbursement.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The VA may adjust the amounts available based on inflation.&lt;br&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
