  VA's mileage reimbursement rate jumps

VA's mileage reimbursement rate jumps

By Rick Maze - Staff writer
Posted : Thursday Jan 31, 2008 16:37:32 EST

Mileage reimbursement rates for veterans visiting Department of Veterans
Affairs hospitals and clinics will jump tomorrow to 28.5 cents per mile from
11 cents per mile - the first increase in 30 years.
VA officials predict more than 1 million veterans will be affected by the
increase.

Rep. John Salazar, D-Colo., one of the sponsors of the legislation to
increase the rate, said the timing couldn't be better.

"Many veterans in Colorado have difficulty obtaining care, and sometimes put
off necessary treatment simply because they can't afford the gas to drive to
a VA clinic," Salazar said. "This mileage reimbursement is a step forward in
ensuring that our veterans can access the health care services they were
promised."

VA said in a statement that it is increasing deductibles - the cost a
veteran must pay before reimbursement begins - to match the new mileage
rate.

  Suicidal Soldiers, Recession, Americans Losing It

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

She is falling, she is falling! It's becoming more and more
apparent with each passing day, America, the Atheist empire,
the Antichrist is finally beginning to reap the just reward
of her absolute corruption, power and abominable wickedness.
Even her shellshocked troops are beginning to see the Light
from afar off, from the excruciating torments of Dark Limbo.

The population of neo-Babylon, daughter miserable augmented
by the abomination of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ which
is the first holocaust, Babylon the great is finally coming
apart at the seams. And this is very good news for the body
of Christ, thus is extremely bad news for CHRINOs, Atheists,
Christians-in-name-only, the "free riders" who had believed
they could get away with murder. Extreme pessimism looms on
the dark horizon, and you ain't seen nothin' yet, Beelzebub!
