FREE VA MEDICAL FOR LIFE


 

From Patricia at HCVets…

My, how considerate of the MiamiVAMC to offer free medical for life to the 5 Veterans who came down with HIV, the eight who tested positive for HCV and the sole Vet who contracted Hepatitis B. I’m going to venture out on a limb and bet that they didn’t even have to file a 38 USC §1151 claim in order to qualify for these benefits. I also wonder if they were told they could file claims for this and get service connected now that they are hopelessly infected.

Let this be a lesson in where not to get a colonoscopy.

    How many of those Vets were getting “FREE” healthcare to begin with? With a co-pay just for being a Vet….The big question in my mind is how many VA clinics and hospitals have gotten away with murder? If Veterans get HIV they consider that a big deal but if they only get HCV then it’s no big deal, FOR NOW.
