So, it sends vets to non-VA facilities for medical care. Is that so bad? Read this and then decide:
Last week, the VAs internal investigation revealed that 57,436 newly enrolled veterans are facing wait times of at least 90 days for a first appointment, and 63,869 vets who signed up with the VA in the past decade never got an appointment. At least 23 vets died waiting. Worse, three-quarters of VA facilities manipulated waiting lists or kept dummy books.
I still say the only way to fix the VA problem is to seek out, indict, and try those more interesting in their own careers than providing medical care to those they are hired to serve!
