The Obama administration received clear notice more than five years ago that VA medical facilities were reporting inaccurate waiting times and experiencing scheduling failures that threatened to deny veterans timely health care — problems that have turned into a growing scandal.
Veterans Affairs officials warned the Obama-Biden transition team in the weeks after the 2008 presidential election that the department shouldn’t trust the wait times that its facilities were reporting.

Just another issue Obama inherited from Bush. He has been to busy working on creating jobs, fighting a war, and implementing healthcare for civilians. Obama can only fix one thing at a time and this is not at the top of his list.

Why would anyone think obama give a crap about the VA?

the VA (for the most part) has been an abortion from the jump.

this is what everyone needs to focus on, if you want to score points against Obama and his policies
Bush is going to get blamed for the glut, due to Iraq/Afghanistan

He's also been busy locking these same veterans out of open-air monuments built in honor of them and their friends who died on the battlefield.
Like any good liberal, Obama hates the military and he hates veterans.

This falls on the feet of everyone from this administration, the previous and everyone in congress. They pass without hesitation every defense bill that goes in front of them but allow the VA to continue to be severely underfunded. It's deplorable on every level.
But hey they have more important things to worry about like bengazi for the 50th time. True patriots they are!

This will be the most serious scandal of Obams's tenure, but it's not really something to place at his feet. I put more blame on Congress.

The military is one group I've been very surprised haven't been more vocal about this for the past few years.

I don't fault Obama for what is going on at the VA...the inherent problems in that place are far beyond fixable for anyone.
That said, the VA system is AT BEST a representation of what the entire US health care system will look like in 20 years...and is likely representation of top notch care 20 years from now if we truly adopt a single payer system.
