@Sayagain... so what yourt saying is that if I am able bodied and able to work I can't use my veteran hospital benefits? Until now I have and the costs are based on my income which I have been fine with.

Veterans discharged with a disability get VA health care. Able bodied veterans will get health care like ordinary citizens. you have been getting VA care without having qualified? wish i could do the same. nothing changes on that score until your state establishes a health insurance exchange, and you will participate in that on a subsidized basis if you are not covered by employer plan, medicare or state medicaid.

According to an interview NPR conducted with some individuals yesterday, yes, because they would be able to procure their healthcare through other avenues.

if you are elligible for services at the VA, the ACA will consider you covered.
