Ikorrellim: Thank you for that information. Depressing as it was, I appreciate it. The "Means Testing" aspects of VA policy is most troubling. Personally, I think that if the Vet is going to a VA hospital - it should be HIS prerogitive - not someone at the VA. I have a service connected disability but I would probably go to my health plan/Blue Cross selection before I would select the VA. If a Veteran shows up at the doorsteps of a VA hospital - he or she should be given care or sent to a private facility (paid by the US). Period.
