David Shulkin: “I happen to believe the way you keep the VA system strong is by allowing veterans to decide where they want to get care.”

The VISN model was put in place close to 20 years ago, a very innovative model that has served VA well.

VA OIG reports 'must be accurate,' 'must be fair,' and 'must be objective.' This report is none of those things.

I believe strongly, Anderson, that when it comes to V.A. and national security, we can't make this a political issue.

It is my hope we can work together to ensure talented medical professional remain in the VA to deliver quality care to our veterans.
