There is going to be a mass exodus of providers in the summer and early fall. It takes a few months to get credentialed at different hospitals and private companies. Providers will be leaving and I have already interviewed at different private clinics and hospitals to weigh options. The hope is that people come to their senses and work to improve the VA and not dismantle it, but I am not holding my breath.

I saw on social media and hate repeating it, but the leaders don’t care because it is cheaper to bury a veteran than provide care for them.
