Should there be more or less privatization of veterans’ healthcare?

I feel like an ore exceeded with the funding they get, but at the same time, not forget the people who gave their life for this country.

Everyone should be able to receive the healthcare they need. There should be organizations for the specific care of veterans because they will have health problems that other companies may not be able to handle well.

More to ensure that veterans get the care they need and are not neglected by the system, but not at the complete expense of others in need as well.

I am a veteran, but do not utilize veteran's healthcare. Therefore, I do not feel sufficiently educated on the issue to provide a comment.

Whatever the veterans want really. It shouldn't be our place to speak since its THEIR healthcare. If they want to make it more public, then so be it. If they choose to be more private, then that's their decision.

Neither. Increase the funding for government veteran healthcare systems but also allow private organizations to continue their practice.

Veterans should have any and all medical needs taken care during service and after discharge if they commit no crimes

They should be allowed to see their own doctor but more money needs to be invested in the VA system as well

Yes, if the VA fails to meet the needs of the veteran, they should be able to get the help from private doctors.

More because veterans should see a doctor of their choice and Social Security should be privatized so that there is no taxes being paid to it.

There should be more privatization as this will allow veterans to see any doctor their choice

Less, socialize all healthcare

We should increase funding to the current system, and impeach Trump for mass firings of veterans from Federal employment

Private health care would be beneficial to veterans. But many veterans have lots of psychiatric and psychological disorders like PTSD, PNES etc. so if you want to privatize healthcare for veterans, hire veteran educated nurses and doctors that are familiar with veteran specific disorders to not make them feel othered in healthcare. OR provide more funding to VA hospitals so there are more doctors and appointments are not so far away to schedule.

Privatize so that veterans can see a doctor of their choice and privatize social security thoroughly do that social security is not wasted from government taking taxes from people

Less, private healthcare shouldn't exist, it's a virus preying on those in need

health care should be free for everyone.

they should go to whatever doctor they want to and should improve the system

Less, we need a single payer healthcare system

Less, and we should switch to a single payer system

Veterans should be covered under single-payer universal healthcare.

No private healthcare for anyone

just treat veterans better

I would like to see BOTH government health coverage programs and private insurance replaced by severe restriction on the prices of health care, auditing health care bills for unnecessary fees, and local states paying doctors a fixed salary to doctors like we do to police and other public workers, reducing the cost of health care to only absolutely necessary resource fees that can be covered either out of pocket or automatically covered by charity organizations for low-income individuals. Both medicare and private insurance companies should be banned as fraud organizations that artificially…  Read more inflate prices and charge unnecessary fees. Health care worker salaries should be paid for by cities and states locally, not by the federal government, not through medicare, not through private insurance, and salaries should be above the cost of living but capped below $1 million annually in every city and state. Voluntary cosmetic procedures that are not for patients of cancer, or injuries caused by severe accidents or crimes, should not salaries paid by the state, though private charities can pay for transition operations (which could conceivably cost less if the overall health care system is less bloated).

It depends on the veterans' opinions

Remains the same

There should be more funding for healthcare in general, but veterans should high slightly more priority depending on their health.

Depends on if the veteran has experienced negative effects from being a veteran such as ptsd or a life changing disability

Less, and we should adopt a single-payer health care system that accommodates all citizens (veterans or otherwise).

All people deserve equal and quality health care

This should be left up to each individual veteran

This should be left up to the veterans

Have the option for the veteran, it is up to them.

Depends on what the veterans prefer

Up to the veterans

Veterans should maintain a choice, but this doesn’t necessarily mean “more” privatizing

Less, and merge the V.A into a single-payer universal healthcare system.

not enough knowledge to answer

we need to overhaul the va increasing its funding veteran should be able to to go which ever doctor they prefer but va hospitals should be places, veterans should not need to go to anyone .

Min nang deng Laka kinang sueng

nationalize healthcare for all people including vets

Regardless, the old system works fine, privatization cares for those who can't get in the VA.

More, to make veteran's healthcare cheaper, more efficient, customized, and allow them to see any doctor of their choice.

for expediency sure, but not to go to the #1 doctor in the country for any ailment they desire to have treated.

Less, and merge the VA into a single-payer two-tier healthcare system.

Less, and also the VA should be merged into a single-payer universal healthcare system.

Veterans should receive good healthcare, but it shouldn’t be much better than Medicare unless it is for a more serious ailment.

we should replace it with single healthcare

Less, and implement a single-payer healthcare system

Less, and integrate veteran’s healthcare into a single-payer healthcare system to give veterans the healthcare they need free of charge.

Less, and implement a universal single-payer healthcare system so veterans can get healthcare free of charge.

They served our country. The government should lay their bills

I like it if they can't provide it go elsewhere.

I feel we should do more for our veterans. I would like for their healthcare to improve greatly they need so much more without all the frustration they have to go through in order for them to get what they need.

Less; there should be no privatization of veterans' healthcare.

I am satisfied with the current level of privatization of veterans' healthcare.

Regardless, all forms pf healthcare should be abolished

medicare/national healthcare for all should apply to ALL

Less, as long as veterans are able to see any doctor of their choice

More, veterans should be able to see any doctor of their choice, as long as they afford it

Everyone should be able to see the doctor they choose

Single payer-system

Veterans deserve all respect, mainly the good ones though.

Equal, all U.S citizens should receive the same degree of medical care

Less, Medicare for All

Provide only the highest level of medical care to veterans at whatever the cost and whatever the delivery method.

No, but veteran’s healthcare should be merged into a universal healthcare and dentacare program

I’m uneducated on this.

Less, everyone should have free healthcare

More, but the system should be heavily regulated

i dont really know much about this topic

everyone should get the same access to healthcare

Free healthcare should be provided to all citizens, but especially to veterans left homeless after time served.

Less, but until a single payer system is passed allow them access to the private market.

Less, veterans should be able to see any doctor of their choice but the government has an obligation to provide effective treatment without the need for privatization.

Less, and we should have a single payer system that covers everyone.

not enough education on subject

If a veteran needs healthcare, then the price they pay should be exponentially low because they risked their lives to serve our country, and they deserve the best.

Any person who has served this country should be eligible to receive free health care from any facility they choose for their lifetime and that should include drug treatment services, mental health and physical health.

Veterans should be offered an insurance card that acts like normal insurance that is paid by the government. Kind of like all of patients that have Medicaid can see any provider that takes Medicaid and all their visits and medication is covered in full because they can’t afford it. Our veterans should be offered the same freedoms with better coverage and not have to wait to see some one in the va or get referred out and forced to jump through the hoops

End private healthcare.

I do not have enough knowledge on this to have an opinion

Less, but they should always have a private option

it should depend on the situation

Leave it up to the veteran

Increase funds for veterans. Provide lists of doctors and specialists who will best care for their specific needs.

Veterans need to be guaranteed excellent medical care, funded by the government, within their local community.

It should be the veteran's choice

Abolish healthcare for veterans.

maybe more? If the veteran chooses that? However many veterans have healthcsre issues specific to the military which private care does not deal with as well

Less, but we should have single payer

Less, we need a single payer healthcare system that covers everybody

Rebuild the VA system so this is no longer a problem for veterans.

They should put down all veterans like dogs

single payer healthcare system

Privatize, so veterans can make more choices and this will increase their investments, savings, and give them a lower cost.

More, because privatizing veterans' healthcare leads to more investments, savings, and lower costs and more choices for them.
