I've heard the same VA horror stories you all have heard but I have to say that the VA did save my life once. I walked into a civilian emergency room with a severe inner ear infection for which i was given Tylenol and a bill for $500 bucks (no insurance at the time). My GF at the time then talked me into going to the VA the next day. They quickly diagnosed the problem (and it's severity) and game me antibiotics which cleared it up all for no cost.

So maybe the VA is really bad but my personal experience with them doesn't bear that out.
