Question:
Hi Jim. Is this MISSION ACT a good thing for Vets? Under Choice I was rejected for mental health services @100% disabled because there is a VA primary care clinic i(blood draw kiosk) in town. They do not offer any kind of mental health care. Under MISSION It is a 45-60 minute drive to San Antonio-Audie Murphy VA Hospital. Do I qualify for civilian local care now? They offered me telemed care under Choice, I said no thanks. Thanks Jim!

If the VA can accomplish all they say they're going to, then this will be a very good thing. So far it isn't going well. I have all the details on my VAWatchdog blog where you can follow my journey as I apply for the benefit.
