Veteran affairs healthcare isn't the same as Obamacare because non-veterans pay for their own insurance. A minority of veterans are on waiting lists but the vast majority receives timely healthcare. Availability of services in area and willingness of doctor to accept patients may be more important in determining access to healthcare.

Personally I have had excellent care at all the VAs I have been seen at for numerous problems.....I cannot say enough about how good the Milwaukee VA has been for me.....never had a problem there .....
I consider myself one of the fortunate ones..of course I considered myself one of the fortunate ones 4 decades ago!
I believe you can find find good and bad within every one of their locations.....just like every thing else.... The VA is no better or nor worse than any of the other HUGE Government programs....
it is just sooooo sad to every see a Veteran having to beg for benefits or beg for medical care......disgusting
.......and if by chance that Veteran has served overseas and yet is still not a 'citizen' then shame on you US Congress......maybe 'y'll' should have to serve a little time before raking in the huge benefits of representing your people!....and voting to send troops here there and everywhere when you don't have to do it nor your family!

Thank you for an intelligent post.
VA care, of course, varies from State-To-State.
But Faux News does not report that essential information.
I take my Dad routinely to his visits to Newington, CT and have NEVER had an issue.

Obviously when people say that they are referring to what people see as government inefficiency and lack of accountability that you see with government run agencies etc. The worry is that sooner or later our healthcare system will become as inefficient as the postal service or license bureau and various other agencies if the government were to run healthcare.

What I want to know is why is the lamestream media having such a hard on for this scandal especially with so many of you having positive VA experiences.....

I tried to get simple blood panels done and there was a 5 month wait list. Not impressed with the VA.

Rick....I understand and that sucks big time and should never happen....I related my case because I have been in the system for a long long time....AND I go to a fantastic VA Facility.... my heart goes out to all having problems...young and old alike....that PHX Facility must be loaded with politician like staff (uncaring, overpaid, greedy and drowning in self importance) .... thankfully SOMEONE has the will to speak up!
looks like even Obama is Mad as Hell...... now that helps! sooooo happy they are mad as hell.....thought they were mad 5 years ago!

Yeah, I actually remember when he was "mad as hell" it was when I was coming off deployment dealing with the VA trying to give me more anthrax injections that i had already taken because of their crappy file sharing. It definitely made me listen to him a little.

Dj Are you serious? I think you need to take of the blinders and get a clue!
In the illegal sanctuary state o Massachusetts illegals got 93 million dollars of that worthless (as you call it) healthcare benefits compliments of the taxpayer.
Sure this was a couple of years ago but now the state of Mass doesn't even supply those stats.
There's a reason why NH is being flooded with folks from Mass.....

You asked if the healthcare is 'good.' It isn't. There are clinics that all the poor can go to. It is hardly preventative care. And it is bandaid on a bullet wound.
People like you will never understand that one key to solving the healthcare problem is preventative care.
Pay more now to prevent the millions of dollars spent on stage 4 type of illnesses like cancer, heart attacks, strokes, etc.
Illegals aren't covered by any act other than EMTALA (signed by Reagan) but the health clinics are understaffed and overwhelmed and designed to stop the costs that we all incur when an ultimate illness happens and is never paid.
But you are too busy blaming Massachusetts for your sorry lot in life to understand things factually.

In Chili's defense DJ, I am always up in Parkland's( Dallas County's freebie hospital) L & D department, and I always make a point to view names of patients on room rosters board......I assure all here, 90% of those are non- American ( ie south of the border) and reaffirming that fact, are all the family members represented in the waiting room
Same Parkland JFK received his last rites....is finally being replaced with multi billion dollar facility right across street which will be finished by years end.... Place is a palace .....now you want to discount the freecare that's going to be provided over there...but in New Parkland's defense..it is the prime training facility for med students currently being educated at UTSW (Great Med School) ....The training MD's do have no shortage of patients to teach our future OBAMACARE providers
