The program ends with a discussion of the VA crisis and an initiative called “Have You Ever Served?” that aims to increase the likelihood that clinicians outside of the VA health system will recognize health problems that can arise from exposures and injuries that occurred when patients served in the military.
You can listen to the program on WBAI, 99.5 FM or online at www.wbai.org.
Healthstyles is sponsored by the Center for Health, Media & Policy at Hunter College.
