...and by moving off shore, it will be more difficult to file suit (and it ought to be harder to sue), judgments will not be rendered by 12 people too foolish to get out of jury duty, trial lawyers will be starving, and ... (everybody but the lawyers win!)
I qualify for care at VA - I disenrolled and quit using that as an option because it was substandard for my health issues (both service connected and non-service connected). For instance, the last time I was at a VA clinic for my back injuries and neuropathy, the doctor VA assigned to my case was a specialist in OB/GYN!
No comments please, but I kid you not.
Likewise, with my retired ID I can get in space A in a MTF, but it just isn't worth it. Driving for miles, waiting and waiting, alsways seeing different people and noone familiar or following patient progress.
As a result, my wife and I opted to pay for health insurance so that I can get to the doctors I need to see for the care necessary to prolong my life and manage my complications. My wife likes having her own doctor and being able to get referred to specialists when she has issues. We dread this national program when Iwe will be directed to see physicians who are not free to give and prescribe what is indicated or even specialists for the condition indicated.
...I'm saving up for a boat that will make it out to the ship... They'll probably even have a lounge rather than a waiting room
