Ok. How do retrieve posts from 4 years ago?

You'll have a hard time with RN. He sort of speaks in a manufactured consent manner in which there is a lot of things he will dodge or not address. This thread in itself is a good example on which he is feigning care for veterans in a private healthcare system, so basically he is manufacturing consent for VA cuts. He's pretty wormy.

Private sector care is more expensive. The US healthcare system is the most costly in the world by about double. I'm personally happy with my care at the VA, you want to take that away to create more loopholes for me to jump through for care for something that will cost more per patient.

What will probably happen with privitization is that it will be taken advantage of to over bill the government via the VA paying out to private care. We have Rick Scott as part of the Trump admin and that guy was CEO/founder of HCA when the did the largest Medicare fraud ever.

I don't think you understand why they want privitization. They don't want to do it to save money. It also isn't about better care.
I don't think you are factoring in all the indirect and infrastructure costs for the VA

my father is a Vietnam vet, so don't act like I don't care about it. Especially Vietnam vets who have been f'd over by our government for years

lol, the search button, let me know if you need me to direct you to where its at and what to do after that
 
I like @RNHawk but he is healthy wrong here

Private providers are encouraged to up money to charge. The VA providers are not.

I'm sorry, but you are dead wrong. Dead meaning you will see more dead vets.

QC and IC depending on what I need.
Well I am glad they are taking care of you and that you are happy. I will admit that I am jaded with all the BS they put my father through and from some other things I have seen. I think the VA is good for personalized care but when it comes to specialized care you need to go to a private institution in my opinion. I still think overall veterans would still get as good as or even better care at private institutions and at a lower price but again that's just my opinion, again I am happy that you Jimmy, and other vets are happy with your care
 
That’s odd because on Monday, a large contingent of people from the VA and their doctors toured our hospital because they want to start doing cases here. Better healthcare for the veterans at a reduced cost, win win
BS. The cost of care in a private setting is triple the cost of care done at the VA. Now, do VAs send patients to private sector hospitals… sure they do because they likely offer a certain specialty that the area VA doesn’t or that VA has a wait of 30 days or longer so the patient can choose to go elsewhere on VAs dime. But, VA is the world’s largest teaching facility… all those doctors at your hospital likely trained at a VA.

Still nothing?
 
Happy hour?
You don’t think a soldier injured in combat can’t go to a private neurosurgeon or ortho spine specialist for a herniated disc? Or needs a fusion in the lumbar region 20 years after he or she had a compression fracture and now has severe stenosis or arthritis?

GOP October 2024: “Democrats are spending $X billion dollars housing illegals in luxury hotels while our vets sleep in the streets!”

GOP March 2025: “Thanks for your votes, suckers & losers. We’re reducing your benefits and firing 70,000 people who provide the services upon which you depend. USA! USA! USA!”
 
Damn…I hope the 30% of veterans that DOGE just terminated, for performance, have their homes paid off.

And if they need medical/mental health assistance to get through their personal crisis, the 80,000+ terminations at the VA isn’t going to help streamline/fast-track things for them.

Hard to feel sorry for any veterans that voted for the guy that called our military fallen, that gave their lives for our country, “losers and suckers”. They need a reality re-set.
