up-set-vet

I have seen rhis myself as I am on couple 'new' lists in Houston. After many years of reasonable treatment, assistance, and care in Fort Worth, after relocating to Houston, I have been added to lists that have now removed me from treatments, medications, and holistic care that I enjoyed in Fort Worth. My "physician (PCP) here in Katy made determinations and decisions regarding my care based upon dated and an incomplete historical medical record and images (MRI/Xray, CT) removing me from some medications and radically changing others with zero regard for my presentation and historical accounts. When I called her out on the lack of records she was using to 'treat' me and I began writing everything she was saying, deciding, and her approach to me, she referred me immediately to the psych/social worker down the hall starting a new path of labeling and classification for me as a patient. I do not believe there are 'secret lists', rather there are lists that have always existed that the real world does not know about; these are the 'unofficial notes' in our records that let other regional VAMC employees see and no one else describing the non-medical, but personal behavioral notes for other employees in the same VAMC/RO system. We are not protected by the VA, rather we are numbers to be mitigated at a financial level. The undisclosed mission of the VA is to deny, defer, and demoralize every Veteran in the hopes that the Veteran will just quit, die, or seek external treatment remedies alleviating (mitigating) them of responsibility and financial liability of the VA in order for them to be capable of reporting positive results and financial responsibility of the VA overall. I had hoped that with the Phoenix 'List; debacle this Summer that there would indeed be a positive change made in the VA overall; as we see, there is nothing more than one person quitting, the head of the VA, and a crap-ton of money thrown at the system which cannot be fixed by money... Wait and see, if you do not see a lot of 'fluff' brought to the VA with these dollars, call me out as wrong... I can take it. Best to you all, never give up the fight for what you earned.
