The Veterans Administration: a bureaucracy run for the benefit of bureaucrats.

VA Investigation Reveals Poor Care, Fake Reports and ‘Nationwide Systemic Problem’

WASHINGTON –A scathing report issued by the inspector general for the Department of Veterans Affairs confirmed that former military personnel faced persistent problems accessing care at the agency’s medical facilities and that staff faked reports indicating the appointments operation was running smoothly.
Acting Inspector General Richard J. Griffin couldn’t, however, substantiate earlier reports that 40 deaths or more could be attributed to poor VA care, noting that the whistleblower who made the allegation “did not provide us with a list of 40 patient names.”
