Veterans Health Administration - Washington, District of Columbia

Kevin Morris

I'd give negative stars, if possible. I honorably served my country, yet the VA refuses to acknowledge the injuries I suffered due to multiple deployments in harm's way. Delays, incompetence, and a general failure to recognize veterans runs rampant in this corrupt organization. They lost all my service records, and despite sending them boxes of proof, they continue to deny and ignore facts due to their own failures. The promises of benefits I was "sold" in the military are all empty. They behave like a private insurance company. It is as if they make money by NOT helping vets. And don't bother asking your Congressional representatives for assistance. Not even the President can get them to actually do their job. House of lies. Avoid at all costs.

At 100% Permanent and Total disability, I can’t even get the Colorado Springs VA CBOC to treat me! Incompetent for 2 years now.

The Complete VA System has FAILED Me from day 1 and for the next 36 plus years. I was injured on my Aircraft Carrier in '86, sent to physical therapy at the airforce base in Norfolk and it made things worst. Then the Ship sent me to the Portsmouth Naval Hospital, they went through the whole process and stated that I was no longer fit for service due to the injury. So 3 locations saying the same thing. I get to Tampa VA, they check me out in 1 day I explained that I was knocked down the steel stairs tumbling down. But the Dr. refused to do any mri or anything on my head. Both my knees were torn up . But i received the claim back Denied. I wrote back for the appeal but they said they never received it. And for the next 24 years they sent the document that stated i have 1 year to appeal b4 they close the claim to the same address over and over knowing where I was living all the time because I was receiving other VA mail at my house where I was at during the same time. So I never received a fair opportunity because of their mistakes and we showed them the proof but they refused to allow it.

Having dutifully served and discharged our obligations, we now confront the perplexing notion that we remain indebted to the nation, all the while accumulating a substantial burden owing to greedy individuals who merely occupy comfortable office spaces without making any significant contributions of their own.

To neglect and disregard those who have served in the battle.

So I have recently retired and received my VA rating so yesterday I called so I could set appointments and start being seen. The individual I spoke with when using then number above was great, helped me change a few things, ensured I was in the system correctly and then explained which clinic I would go to. Then once I was transferred to the Belvoir VA clinic I get a voice mail and asked to leave a message every time I called. Not the way I wanted to start my VA experience!!!!

The VA is the worst agency I have ever come across. I had to fight with the VA for over two years to receive an apportionment for my 2 children. Once that was finally in place and they turned 18 the funds went to them. They are to receive as long as they are in school. Well here we are again, 1 child changed from a community college to a 4 year school so we submitted a request for school attendance on an existing claim. So according to the records they received it July 12, 2016 and have been trying to get a status update since then. I was just told today that they should complete the claim by August 2017. Are you kidding me? She turns 23 next month so the benefit stops anyways. How hare is it to change the name of a school in the computer system? Over a year? What exactly are they doing? Oh the claim was also upgraded to financial hardship so it moves through the system quicker, really 13 months is quicker? When you call the "customer service" line all you get is what they read off of a script. This place is a joke. I truly believe because we have been calling and checking on status and keeping up on things that the file has been flagged not to move along. This is not the first time we had to change schools and it took less than a month. I have contacted my Senator and just might have to go to the media next to expose how bad the VA really is. Shameful!!!!

The VA functions as a large insurance company that wants to deny its clients support. Its not disorganization, its structured funds being held from the vets and given to the top. The best of us treated like insurance claims. My theory was that it was an agency that was just too big to be organized. That's not why it's not helping vets. It's a ponzi scheme on the inside, the systems they poured copious funds into are sensitive not disorganized. This is a design. The higher ups in this agency have the best insurance money can buy and golden parachutes, they make over 6 figures, disgusting place. I'm ashamed of them.

When I moved to North Carolina for 30 days I tried to call to transfer health my health care from Philadelphia Pennsylvania to North Carolina. I physically had to drive 350 miles round trip to physically in roll a my health care. I waited 3 months to get a primary care Doctor. My primary care physician put in we farolles for a cardiologist a vascular doctor a dermatologist and a ENT Doctor. I m still waiting that has been 5 months now and 2 weeks ago I ended up in the hospital from a HEART ATTACK. Do not rely on VA Health Care cause I believe there job is to KILL US OFF INSTEAD OF HELPING US.
