I am worried about the veteran that waited 61 days, or 90 days, or 120 days.
Why not take the $200,000 on interest--and we know in this room it is going to be a lot more once that back money comes in--pay all the claims, and then go back to the providers on the unclaimed claims and maybe let them reimburse you?
I have a surgical hospital in my district, as I have said, that, to their disappointment, to their severe disappointment, have had to stop servicing veterans.
