<<Wow. If the VA is the best, that's not saying much about the rest.>>

I have coffee with two guys who get VA medications. They used to have to get an appointment, round trip of 170 miles, wait in line for a months supply. That VA hospital is closing so now they have a 70 mile drive to get a 3 month supply plus they get checked over by a nurse. Still the same price too. The VA is closing old hospitals and paying for care in public hospitals.

My mother was a nurse for the West LA VA. No, it is not great health care.
