If I were a veteran, and I were given the option, hey, you can wait a month to get seen here locally, or you can drive in 2 weeks, 2 hours one way, I would just wait the couple of weeks.
We need to find--for men in particular it is a huge issue, 66 percent are using firearms and the access that veterans have to firearms is pretty great.
I think we will be revisiting that in, you know, 6 months' time to verify if, in fact, it is.
Thank you, Chairman Bost. I want to thank you very much for calling this hearing today, and for taking the lead in requesting the GAO report, which is the basis of this oversight hearing of the VA's contract medical examination program.
