Veterans not receiving the health care they deserve is not acceptable. It's a systemic and serious flaw affecting our heroes throughout the nation. The U.S. House of Representatives voted July 29 to pass the VA Accountability Act of 2015, which will give the Secretary of Veterans Affairs greater authority and flexibility in firing VA employees who fail to properly do their job.

We need to expand the pool of health care providers who accept Choice Card, and we need to improve the VHA's reimbursement process so participating providers will be taken care of.
