why doesn’t the VA pay for alternative sources of pain management such as acupuncture, massage, chiropractor ?
November 2nd, 2009 | by admin |who would I have to go to to get the ball rolling in the right direction for us damaged veterans who these alternative types of healing may help?
Because the VA sucks and they don’t give a damn about the pain and suffering of vets. They just want to get you out of there with the least effort and expense possible. Anything they can find an excuse not to cover, they won’t cover. that’s why they deny payment on all bills from other medical facilities.They are more vile than I can describe.

If you are oif/oef, go see your poc at your va hospital and ask. some va’s are using alternative therapies. there are many non profit organizations that are starting to offer these therapies for free also.
