"Thomas Breen was so proud of his time in the Navy that he wanted to be treated only at a VA facility, his family says."
Well this guy is an idiot. VA has a priority list service connected illness, service connected disabled, POW's, etc, get priority over a guy who served 18 months left healthy, has a good income and other insurance.
VA is rated very highly by the consumers that use it, it does a lot of things very well, but appointment time varies from hospital to hospital and specialty needed,
I've got VA, Medicare (edited) and Tricare and I prefer to use VA even without a hospital in NO, and I am not a liberal, and VA isn't the AHCA, it is a niche that works very well in my case IMHO.

I'm very pleased to hear that the VA in NOLA is doing a good job.
Did you make a mistake and write "Medicaid" instead of "Medicare" ?
