VA medications

4. How the battle over the US Postal Service is costing veterans dearly

In late July, Richard Valdez placed an order through the Department of Veterans Affairs to have his medications refilled and shipped to his home in San Bernardino, California — a precaution during the coronavirus pandemic for veterans like Valdez, who at 73 is at high risk.

The refill request for his four medications — for headaches, post-traumatic stress, and physical pain stemming from injuries incurred during his time in Vietnam as a Marine — was sent on July 25.

The first arrived at the end of the month. The other three still haven't come.

When asked if he'd received any notifications from the VA over the delays, Valdez remarked: "If I did, I haven't gotten it yet."
