The print copy was for the VA disability determination office in Winston-Salem, NC. They never asked me for permission to access my records and then denied my claim for lack of evidence, though it resides in my file. Why they can access my military record without my permission, but can't review their own records, I shall never understand. My congressman's office suggested that I say it was all my fault and supply them with a printed copy. When they see that I have Type II diabetes, they *should* approve my claim.
The VA medical system here in NC is superb and everything from my OR notes to an MRI are in my electronic record available to any VA health professional. It's very nice to be able to read x-rays and CAT scans, etc. right in the office and see them with great clarity. This is where the nation's healthcare system needs to go. No matter where I go in the VA system, there's my medical record readily accessible = if I sign a waiver were I to go to another part of the country. And yes, they go to great lengths to keep the network and records secure. Before I launched into my tirade (which made zero impression on her, "You told me to shred it.") I asked them to call the police as I intended to murder her. They didn't even react to that. One must always remember the IQ of the audience.

I would have killed someone. Why can't you just keep the copy the print out at the VA? _______________________________________________ Liveaboard mailing list [email protected] To adjust your membership settings over the web http://www.liveaboardnow.org/mailman/listinfo/liveaboard To subscribe send an email to [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] The archives are at http://www.liveaboardnow.org/pipermail/liveaboard/ To search the archives http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected] The Mailman Users Guide can be found here http://www.gnu.org/software/mailman/mailman-member/index.html
