twitterLetter: Veterans clinic declared safe
Friday, Dec. 27, 2002 | 4:09 a.m.
Moreland Corp. has completed repairing structural deficiencies in the veterans ambulatory clinic and although a city inspector has declared the building safe, Veterans Affairs brass are still insisting that veterans health care will be spread to eight or 10 locations.
This is not economical. It will cost $4 million a year versus the current $2 million cost. It is also not sensible because health care for veterans will be less efficient and less available.
Why not add a wing to the Mike O'Callaghan Federal Hospital or build a new veterans hospital adjacent to it? Why not remain in the current veterans ambulatory clinic, as it is safe?
