With more scandals coming out of the VA almost daily what do you think we can do?

A few possible recommendations:
- Eliminate the VA from the government and allow veterans to use private sector docs funded by the government. The government has promised to take care of veterans. They have tried a governmental solution but it does not work. Maybe a private sector sol
- Congress pass whatever laws are necessary to give VA senior officials the authorities they need to make immediate changes (fire executives, improve processes, etc).
- New VA leadership take immediate and drastic action to change the culture within the VA. Evolutionary change will not get it done. Revolutionary change is needed.
- Veterans need to get vocal and leverage social media and major media to highlight VA shortcomings. Sustained media pressure should help.

Sadly, I think there is not much we can do. This is, again sadly, what was needed in order affect change. When the spotlight is shined on it, it will be forced to change. Continue to make it a lead story in the media. That will affect change. Get competent people in charge on ALL LEVELS!!!

Personally what I think is the VA hospital system should be combined with the Military hospital system. I would also make the VA/Mil hospital system a full Government Services hospital service. What this would do is: enable active duty and guard doctors, medics, corpsmen to serve at many more locations, provide continuity of service to those injured while serving the country, provide better record keeping of medical records and service, ANY government employee from E-1 to POTUS including police and local government employees would be able to use this service WORLDWIDE. This would also force better service from the hospital system as the politicians would not tolerate shoddy service when it is applied to themselves and their families.
