More VA misreporting

Pseudo single-payer VA continues to misconstrue waiting times:

A report released Monday said auditors found VA was understating waiting times by excluding some patients from the count and by claiming that some appointments were late because that was when veterans wanted to be seen, although there was no evidence in the patient files to verify such a claim.

Sen. Daniel Akaka, D-Hawaii, the Senate Veterans’ Affairs Committee chairman, called the report “disturbing” and described it as proof that “VA continues to skew its outpatient reports.”

There are studies that suggest that the VA have better outcomes. Can they also be trusted?
