David Shulkin: “VA is actually the largest provider of telehealth services, 2.1 million visits last year, but we need to be doing much…”

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

I came to Washington with the commitment to make our system work better for veterans. That's the commitment that I went to work every day. I continue to feel strongly about that. There was no reason why I would resign.

How could you argue against wanting veterans to have choice and the best type of care?

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