There’s well over 600,000 backlog cases. You can get on the VA.GOZ website and get the details.
“There’s well over 600,000 backlog cases.”
The vast majority of those people are essentially “space available”.
All Priority Group One (50% or more service connected disability) get red carpet treatment...truly Platinum level care. The best the US medical system has to offer.
That’s the original intent of the VA system.
Everyone I know who uses the system is very happy with the level of care.
