Makes such requirement inapplicable to a VA facility that is closed, or that the Secretary intends to close, as part of the Capital Asset Realignment for Enhanced Services (CARES) process.

Makes this Act applicable to any VA facility unable to provide covered services on or after August 29, 2005, by reason of a major disaster.
