Just A Thought On Invasive Medical Testing At Vamcs

[purple]

With the recent news of the unsanitary conditions at various VAMCs across the country when it comes to invasive testing I have a thought. If I'm schedule for ANY type of invasive test, surgery or anything I don't feel comfortable with the VA doing in the future, I'm going to demand (not ask, demand) that it be done fee-based. And I'll have all of the articles of the recent events in hand.

I'm not willing to take the risk of the VAMC being stupid.

Are you?

Good Luck on that purple let us know how it works out for you.

If you have medicare I would rely on that instead of trying to fight with the VA over Fee Base. Unless you are far from a VAMC the VA won't provide for fee base.

VAMC are supposed to be in the top ten for Jokea accreditation. I know it is supposed to be spelled that way. Hope my wife doesn't see this.

Nope, I don't have medicare....and nope, I don't live far....but if it ever comes up, I will fight it!! And they know that I will fight like hell.
