Sounds like a letter to his Congresscritter is warranted.
Well ya see he might not have survived the 2 1/2 hour drive to the VA hospital. Which is really their intent, because if he dies then they don’t have to provide care.
The entire federal givernment is FUBAR...
Those VA executives seem to have received their bonuses right away.
Instead of studying veterans for a cause in the rise of suicide rates maybe the VA should study itself.
” insisting a patient with congestive heart failure and symptoms of a heart attack should have travelled more than two and a half hours for care at a VA facility instead of visiting his local hospital emergency room.”
This means that the VA was stating that the patient should have gone to VAMC HOUSTON, rather than go to a southwestern Louisiana hospital. The ride from Alexandria to Houston is, at best, 4 1/2 hours, not counting morning rush hour traffic.
The report was submitted by Congressman Boustany of LA.
in Bankruptcy the Dem team could close Pontiac and Saturn for not doing the job - selling enough cars. They closed Chrysler dealerships - what have the done to fix bad VA hospitals? I think this is a question to put to the MEDIA and all those who are trying to end government as we know it. Time to get on message who should fix government NOW dems or pubbies - new people that is who.
