Acting VA Secretary To Visit Phoenix Facility
PHOENIX (AP) — Acting Veterans Affairs Secretary Sloan Gibson will be looking for answers when he visits the troubled VA hospital in Phoenix, which has been at the heart of allegations of delayed treatment and even deaths there.
A former clinic director has said that up to 40 veterans may have died while awaiting treatment.
Gibson will tour the facility and talk with officials in Phoenix later today.
