    If a person is a military vet, can use the VA for healthcare.
    1. Most Veterans qualify for cost-free health care services, although some Veterans must pay modest copays for health care or prescriptions.

    Douglas A. Collins - U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs
    He streamlining the VA to make it more efficient for veterans. Firing all non-essential employees; the ones that just sit around and complain. Doug Collins is retired Army and also did a hitch in the Navy.

    Just did a rebuild on my left shoulder. Qualified for service connected. Entire surgery and meds paid by taxpayers. VA has had some improvements over the years but Still needs improvements. Last year they put me in a prostate med used to transgender… it destroyed my body and my feller. Not the best get hired over there when they pushed DEI. Im sad about the damage done but it’s still there if you dare…

    That shot reduces testosterone which prostate cancer feeds on. The cancer will stop spreading and will shrink so it's not dangerous anymore.

    I get what you’re saying mate. They just plain up gave me a medicine they shouldn’t have. If I was much older and had cancer, it probably would have been the correct one however, I’m in my mid 40’s without cancer and had light prostate issues. it was an oral medicine. It reduced my testosterone, made my nipples leak, made my feller, unable to do its job and it got smaller. it completely destroyed, my body. There’s not much accountability within the VA network when the medical employees do not perform. They are protected by the system. I later went to a non-VA urologist and he could barely believe the prescription they gave me.
