This is for a friend of mine. Steve is a boots on the ground Vietnam combat veteran with leukemia that is 100% VA disabled. His leukemia was in remission but it came back with a vengeance. He ended up in the local emergency room for two days. I had been after him to file for SS disability (he is 62) but he has not done it so his only insurance is VA, They paid for the first day of treatment at Sartori Hospital but refuse to pay for the second day and now Steve owes the hospital over $9,000. Steve just finished his third round of chemo at the VAMC in Iowa City. Any suggestions on how he should appeal with the VA for payment of the second day? Steve is also past commander of the local AmVets post.. He doesn't have the money.......
