The former VA secretary describes his fight to save veteran health care from partisan politics and how his efforts were ultimately derailed by a small group of unelected officials appointed by the Trump White House. Known in health care circles for his ability to turn around ailing hospitals, Dr. David Shulkin was originally brought into government by President Obama to save the beleaguered Department of Veterans Affairs. When President Trump appointed him as secretary of the VA, Shulkin was as shocked as anyone. Yet this surprise was trivial compared to what Shulkin encountered as secretary: a team of political appointees devoted to stopping anyone -- including the secretary himself -- who stood in the way of privatizing the agency and implementing their political agenda. In this uninhibited memoir, Shulkin opens up about why the government has long struggled to provide good medical care to military veterans and the plan he had to solve these problems. This is a book about the commitment we make to the men and women who risk their lives fighting for our country, how the VA was finally beginning to live up to it, and why the new administration may now be taking us in the wrong direction.

Recipient of the 2019 Alex Award “Mike Muñoz Is a Holden Caulfield for a New Millennium--a '10th-generation peasant with a Mexican last name, raised by a single mom on an Indian reservation' . . . Evison, as in his previous four novels, has a light touch and humorously guides the reader, this time through the minefield that is working-class America.” --The New York Times Book Review For Mike Muñoz, life has been a whole lot of waiting for something to happen. Not too many years out of high school and still doing menial work--and just fired from his latest gig as a lawn boy on a landscaping crew--he’s smart enough to know that he’s got to be the one to shake things up if he’s ever going to change his life. But how? He’s not qualified for much of anything. He has no particular talents, although he is stellar at handling a lawn mower and wielding clipping shears. But now that career seems to be behind him. So what’s next for Mike Muñoz? In this funny, biting, touching, and ultimately inspiring novel, bestselling author Jonathan Evison takes the reader into the heart and mind of a young man determined to achieve the American dream of happiness and prosperity--who just so happens to find himself along the way.

VA Handbook for Veterans and Advocates was written by a service-connected combat veteran and licensed attorney for fellow veterans and advocates who want to file a claim with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (“VA”) for disability compensation, health care and other benefits. Advocates and family members will also find it useful. The Handbook provides an A-to-Z explanation of the claims process, from gathering records and speaking with accredited individuals to filing a claim for benefits and appealing improper denials. It explains the hierarchy of veterans law, how to understand and apply decisions from the U.S. Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims, the significance of the M21-1 Manual, and more. VA Handbook also breaks down the modernized appeals system that went into effect in February 2019, with a detailed look at each option that is now available to veterans in the updated appeals process. It should be required reading for all veterans and advocates. If you are going to file a claim for VA benefits, get VA Handbook for Veterans and Advocates.
