I just wanted to say I Thank you for your service and I appreciate you. It's a shame you have been so mistreated in trying to get your medical care.

Access to VA healthcare comes down to what priority group you are in. If you're not in the highest (Group 1) you're wait will be much longer and you will be treated differently. I'm fortunate enough to be in Group 1. I routinely "bump" other groups for quicker appointments. Not fair, necessarily. But I don't know of a better system. Most veterans in Priority Group 1 will speak very highly of the quality of the care that they receive. I know that my own experience (including multiple surgeries and multiple visits to civilian ER's which were all paid for by the VA) with the Dallas VA North Texas System has been excellent.

Please explain the “Highest (Group 1). As far as I am concerned any Veteran that has served their country, is at the “Highest” group. • Combat Veterans regardless of where they have served are deserving of “Highest Group” • Wounded Warriors that have served are deserving of the “Highest Group” • WWl WWII Vietnam Afghanistan Iraq literally every single War Veteran is deserving of the “Highest Group 1” …..Every single Veteran EVERY VETERAN IDGAF if the Veteran has a something as simple as paper cut, or as life threatening multifunctional internal organ failure…each deserves “Highest Level Care. Period End of Story. “High Group 1” • Giving some better quality care or higher level care is absolutely disgusting, it’s appalling, and totally unacceptable. When the government is giving “free” healthcare & treatment to folks that come into this country that aren’t even legal to our country; OVER our Military Veterans…. We have a massive problem. Our government; the VA OWES it to our Veterans to treat them with the absolute BEST WHOLE CARE EVER! Instead they continue to kl!Il our Military Veterans by the numbers on a daily basis….Destroying families that for decades only thought they were safe once they had their Loved one(s) returned home from the war torn countries they had feared they may have lost their Military Service Member(s) to previous. • Whilst you are in the “lucky” category upon your return home as a Veteran. Please tell me how does the rest of the Military Veteran world stop getting treated so poorly upon returning home from their tours of duty? How do we stop 22 a day from continuing to happen due to those lower on the VA tier? #Stop22ADay;💚 #StayYouMatter;💜 #Voice4Veterans;💚

That's complete BS, when pulling up your appointment list on CPRS, there is nothing that says what group you are in lol. If you see a doctor and have an appointment, or procedure, there is no way you get preferential treatment because of some "group" you think you are in. Not sure where you are getting this information, but it's just not true. Sure if you are over 70% disabled you might qualify for some services like dental or transportation, but that's it. Does not affect who gets seen first. Sorry, but I can't sit here and read this BS and agree with what I know is not true.
