As you can see from my above post, I'm new to the VA system. I'm in the actual VA system...not the Choice program. I'm very lucky in that I only live 8 mils away from our VA facility.

I'll be curious to see if the VA is different from the Choice and now Mission programs. MY guess is probably not at all.

I went to the VA Eye Clinic yesterday. I went in without an appointment with a eye problem. They squeezed me in and was out of there in just under 2 hours. Full exam and a quick Laser procedure to clear up the eye program.

So far, I'm pretty impressed with the system.

And welcome to DU!
