This system . I mean, i see a number of things, obviously Electronic Medical records didnt happen and ill have a follow up question for mr. Mini and other items in that vein. Did the va ever contact you after this or after your testimony and say, hey, this is where we failed . This is the doctor. This is where the system failed for you . No. No one no one ever from that i can recall explained to me where the failure occurred or held themselves accountable or provided an apology. Ive stuck with the va, and ive had great medical care and met and became friends with a lot of medical professionals within the va, but the system clearly, clearly failed in my case. And no one ever has explained to me what happened. Do you still travel 2 1 2 hours to the Va Care Center for your current va care or you found one closer that they would let you or did you move .

Top h. H. S. Officials reflected the president s poor leadership in their hearings today and last week. The they dodge questions. They withheld critical information and delivered more promises that wont be kept. Strikingly, the obamacare enrollment site was actually down as the h. H. S. Secretary testified for the first time about the web sites troubled rollout, and even assured americans the web site is working. Its just slow and unreliable. Americans are understandably frustrateed with this failed effort and most importantly this failed law. Last week, i cosponsored legislation that requires h. H. S. To provide weekly reports to congress and to the public about healthcare. Gov. This ensures americans who have paid over 400 million for this exchange actually received the transparency that they deserve.
