Retired CPO Loc: Travel full time in an RV
 
I'm officially designated as a "travelling Vet" which allows me to use various VA hospitals, pharmacies and clinics wherever I travel. It works pretty well. For the most part, they all bend over backwards to help me with my health needs, country wide. Not perfect, but pretty good!

If it were not for the VA I would not be able to afford a medicine that lists for around 20000.00 PER MONTH. Most of the doctors I deal with also work at a little place down the road called STANFORD. My only regret is listening to VA bad publicity and waiting to sign up. Like others here have said, my care has been great!!!

Thanks, Retired.

I am so far from a VA facility that they let me use locals that aren't VA. Also Retired.

Our local one has many doctors that speak only 'passable' English, so difficult to discuss symptoms with. Otherwise a valuable resource.

Thanks.

I bring a written gist to each doctor visit.

Stops me from babbling on and gives doctors a visual to follow along.

Great idea! My wife retired from the State Employees Insurance Board and has great insurance, so I rarely go to the VA, but did use them before we were married in '93. In spite of a few flaws, they are still a great benefit. No more than any of us deserve. Many shed blood and have lasting effects from their time in the military.

Wishing you great health and prosperity. Stay safe, my friend.

I started using the VA a couple of years before I retired. I wanted to be sure I could depend on them. I retired 18 years ago at 55 with no complaints to date.

The VA has been very good toward me, too.
