twitterLetter: Veterans’ health care disrupted
Tuesday, Feb. 18, 2003 | 9:12 a.m.
The Veterans Administration, despite Southern Nevada veterans' complaints, is proceeding with plans to distribute health to 10 locations in the valley. It seems that our congressional delegation is in agreement with this illogical plan, which will prove to be a logistical nightmare.
How will poor and homeless veterans access these services? What will be the cost to them in time and money? If there had been an honest effort to negotiate with Moreland Corp., leaving the clinic would not be necessary. The city of Las Vegas has inspected the clinic and found it safe. It is still possible to vacate these 10 leases and save over $12 million in three years. This money will be wasted to implement a plan that will disrupt veteran health care.
