I called and made an appointment to see my medical records at the Atlanta VA for this past Friday. However, after I got showed up after a 3 1/2 hour trip, I was told thy knew nothing about my appointment. After they called and checked with the guy that handles the records, I was told that my records had been scanned into the computer and that I would get my original hard copies either Monday or Tuesday.
I decided to speak with my VSO Rep and was told by her that my records were not in the system. She went on to say, that the people at the counter tell the Vets anything to get ride of them. I was also told the the records were to be boxed up and sent off to be stored for seven years.
Past dealings with both tells me I cant trust or believe either one of them.
Does anybody know whats going on with the medical records being converted to digital?
There are some files I have never seen used by the VA that would substantiate my case along with proving the VA tempered with my medical treatment records.
