First and last appointment :rofl

Well, you will be surprised to find out that Bush eliminated Veterans Medical Benefits in 2003, unless you were wounded or disabled in the miltary or had a prior medical treatment history with the VA.

If this is your first appointment, you will not be eligible for treatment.

They will probably tell you are a category 8 priority. But they are not accepting any more Category 8 Veterans for treatment since 2003.
