I have VA healthcare which satisfies my ACA requirements, I find it adequate, but it sure could be better and more portable. It is quite challenging to get healthcare from the VA if you are traveling outside your home area. VA has some hoops to go through to get emergency care outside the VA and you might as well just forget non emergency healthcare while outside your home area. Add this to many veterans travel issues to get to a VA facility when there are lots of community healthcare resources available in your local community, and there just has to be a better system.
A recent proposal was floated by a political candidate to integrate VA healthcare into the existing Medicare network of healthcare. This sounds quite promising to me. What do others think about this? Is there a chance this could work? Seems like it could reduce cost and provide better healthcare for veterans. Anyone have thoughts on this? Please do not comment on the political candidate, just your thoughts on such a proposal.
