I also have no problem with his issues.

I have been more than happy with the care that I recieve from the VA. They are super great to deal with if you resect them and are polite and wear a happy face. (And add lots of jokes and BS perhaps) I'm under the assumption that when my name comes up on their computer the monitor starts to shake, and lights start to flash. HE IS HEAR AGIN, BRACE YOURSELVES!

Alot of my issues are not directly related to the military, yet they treat me for them at prices less than you can imagine compared to the local doctors.

As a side note, my local doctor charges for the use of high risk gloves--yea, his nurse needs a pair also! I observed the box, and remembered product number was the exact same gloves I order for our local EMS team......Our cost at the time I checked my bill was around fourty five cents a pair. Somehow the doctor charged me around fourteen something, and that ain't cents either......go figure!

I do assume alot of folks get the shaft at the VA, but they need to keep trying---it is run by the government.

If you think about it, it should be the most cost effective way to deal with it, BUT... well ......we all know.

A very close friend worked in facilities at the VA. He mentioned several times about the waste. Tearing out walls and replacing them even though there was not so much as a scratch in the drywall or paint. But your local congressman said the money had to be spent for building repairs. This soes not alow the money to be spent for a new addition or upgrade---repairs only.

Anyone that was ever in the military will admit that 25-40% of the money spent could be better spent, so our VA probably is not out of line.

The VA can negociate drug costs while Medi Care can not......so they pay ten fold more often, for the same drug in the same box.

Personaly, I don't know how I could afford health care at the local level, or the medical insurance to actualy take care of me.

I have had few blessings in life compared to many, but the VA has been on the top of my list.

I do feel the VA,s that are in a bad way need to be overseen, and butts busted if need be to fix them.

I have never ever been kicked around by the VA, or have I been treated with any type of disresect ......any shape size or form.

Today's Featured Article - The Engine Rebuild Kit - by Curtis Von Fange. I always liked engine rebuild kits. They have all the replacement parts for overhauling an engine without going to the store to get gaskets, special measuring tools, or miscellaneous parts. They come neatly packaged, clean and tidy. But it's important not to let that packaging lull you into a false sense of security. The appearance of matching sleeves, pistons, rings, and bearings can cause frustration and agony if not properly measured and installed in a workshop environment. Following c ... [Read Article]
