Of course they did.

Yep ... they DID ...
The committee was called System Redesign and the purpose of the meeting was to figure out ways to correct the departments efficiency.

It’s a NUMBERS thing?? And what of the vets in their second year of waiting for care that is never going to come? No more free PR for Michelle 0 and Jill, er, DR. Jill Biden until all our vets receive the care they earned and were promised.

No reason to think any of this will ever happen to civilians under ObamaCare, is there? I can’t think of any! /s

When, last October, I realized I had cancer (yes I diagnosed myself), I didn’t dare go to the VA. I was too interested in surviving, so I went to UNC Chapel Hill and they had me cured by January.
Screw the VA and their surly, belligerent and stupid employees. If I want a fight with a black I just go to WalMart. No need to drive all the way to Durham or Fayetteville.

The other issue is .. they WON’T hire the medical professionals who could potentially help. Just try “getting in” to THAT system ...you need at least a year experience and after that, it can take a year just to get hired.
Plenty of new graduate np’s who could do exams and help with a backlog.
To: knarf
Isn’t that a case of ‘cooking the books’? No backlog = no efficiency problem.

Time for another house cleaning. Not only do the bastards need to be fired, they need to be jailed as well. NO EXCUSE! Replace them all with REAL VETERAN’S.

Mitchell tried to blow the whistle on the scheme and ended up being transferred out of his department and eventually losing his job.
I actually filed a complaint with the VA [Inspector General] IG and the office of special counsel. The IG requested if I had any documentation. They wanted names. I gave them [about] a thousand names, Mitchell said. The list I turned into the IG went all the way back to 1997.
I filed the initial complaint with the IG.
The IG instead of doing their own investigation just gave it to the facility and made them aware of my complaint. Most transparent Administration in history.

VA Hospitals: Where the government sends veterans to die where affirmative action healthcare employees are employed.

They had to change the Veterans Administration motto. Now it’s,
“Delete, Delay, Deny And Hope They Die”

The VA? No thanks. I’ll take my chances with witch doctors.
