I don't know about you guys, but I didn't go to medical school just to be called a "redundancy" in healthcare...

I think they just called you an Impediment to access to high quality care.

What was the goal of whoever filmed this? Is this an official presentation? And where is the 1.7x button?

It's from the AANA youtube channel. Dadbod over here is the AANA senior director of federal government affairs.

Right?! As a veteran myself, the only impediment I've seen with the VA is their ridiculous duty hours and insane amount of days off. I don't anticipate anything being done after 2pm most days.

Are you trying to convince me to work at the VA? Because it's working.

*edit*

Also last week an NP got the crap sued out of the VA so they are gonna be pretty understandably hesitant to give midlevels any more autonomy than they already have.

Looks like the VA was the one that ended up getting the rectal exam......albeit from that particular patient's lawyers.......

You can smell the desperation. Their job market is slowly going down the tubes and the rate at which they're pumping out grads isn't helping. They're really swinging for the fences lately.
