Allegations Regarding the Phoenix VA Health Care System

I wonder how widespread the "Hiding deficiencies for bonuses" is..... So Sad!!!!!!!
Unfortunately this is nationwide and shows utter disregard for our veterans of which I'm one. Back in July 2013 when I was looking to get my right leg amputated I turned first to the VA. They said they couldn't (wouldn't) do it because they didn't have the money for it. So I went and had it done at a civilian hospital under Medicaid. I went to the same hospital when I had to get the big toe of my left foot amputated. VA wasn't even on the list then. I have no use for an organization that's happy to take federal funds to help vets then turns around and ignores them.

This, of course, is a big story here. It just boggles my mind that if they cannot adhere to their 14-day max wait, why they cannot send you to another doctor or some care facility. Some here say that they've waited up to two years before getting to see a doctor. For some, the wait was too long. Vets should be allowed to get help wherever they need to and be able to send the bill to the VA for payment.

Oh yeah, and a Happy Mother's Day to anyone that even faintly resembles a mother, or does the work of one, that includes all you Mr. Moms out there. Thumbsup Thumbsup
