Berta Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Yeah...Pete Hegseth is all over this at Fox News and said practically the same thing I did in the Social post on it.... This is one main reason Bob McD was hired! To fix the waiting times.... Don't forget The Sec put some spin on his military background about 2 years ago and many here ,to include me, gave him a pass on that, but now he is a Spin Doctor for the VA. Hell, some of those waiting- time affected vets would love to be waiting in a long line at Disneyland but they cant be, because they are already dead.

Berta Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 I just got this in email ...Sec Bob's Press Release on his remarks on Monday: Statement from VA Secretary Robert A. McDonald 05/24/2016 05:34 PM EDT STATEMENT FROM VA SECRETARY ROBERT A. MCDONALD On Monday, I made some remarks on how we’re working to improve Veterans' satisfaction with the care they receive from VA. It was never my intention to suggest that I don't take our mission of serving Veterans very seriously. In fact, improving access to care is my number one priority and the priority I have set for the entire department. For the last two years, the huge majority of VA employees have worked tirelessly to improve the timeliness of the care and benefits we provides to Veterans. As I've told Veterans Service Organizations, Members of Congress, and myriad other groups of Veterans stakeholders, our goal is to ensure VA becomes the Number 1 customer-service organization in government. To do that, we are following many of the best practices of private sector health care providers and exceptional customer-service organizations. At VA we take our mission of caring for those who "shall have borne the battle" very seriously; we have the best and most noble mission in government. If my comments Monday led any Veterans to believe that I, or the dedicated workforce I am privileged to lead, don't take that noble mission seriously, I deeply regret that. Nothing could be further from the truth. As we approach the Memorial Day holiday and pay tribute to the sacrifices of courageous men and women who placed the interests of others above their own, we at the VA remain focused on our mission to care for those who bravely served our Nation. ### Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArNG11 Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Coincidence, hmm, makes a person think for a bit. Results is how success is measured, time will tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
