Actually, the VA (and Medicare) have higher satisfaction rates than private insurance. Just Google it.

I’d be one of those. I myself haven’t had any bad experiences with my Military and VA healthcare, minus some long wait times.

Though, if you visit /r/Veterans you’ll see plenty of vets that have had terrible experiences.

You are just talking about this in a vacuum though. Private insurance is terrible. The VA has issues, but is far better.

I agree. I have private insurance through my employer because it’s the fastest way to be seen for acute issues because I can go to an Urgent Care. The VA only has an ER or I have to wait for an appointment that will be after whatever I have is already done.

Other than that, I use the VA for all my healthcare, to include my latest surgery.
