when big storms hit rural alaska communities, i struggle to sleep until it passes and we get word that they’re safe

"our greatest fear is a storm will hit shaktoolik in the middle of the night and, when we pick up the phone in the morning the line is dead, and the whole community is wiped out."

the va already requires all notes/images from community care providers, so i think this just means they’ll be louder about it?

Get ready: More requests for Veterans' medical documentation from VA
You may notice an increase in calls from VA Nurse smiling on the phone. requesting medical documentation following
a Veteran's appointment. VA medical center staff will now make three documented attempts to retrieve records within 90 days of the appointment completion date.
Providing Veterans' medical documentation back to VA is required.
Your timely response helps avoid delays in care coordination and ensures Veterans' records are complete and accurate. To support this effort, VA's third-party administrators will also be kept informed to help identify and address any ongoing documentation challenges.
These efforts are part of a broader VA initiative to ensure timely, complete documentation for every community care appointment. We appreciate your continued partnership in delivering timely, high-quality care for those who served.

A small detail that highlights how peculiar this administration is are all the links in these kind of releases that go to news sources. No government data, research, or FBI dossiers. Its just Fox News, quotes taken out of context, and some orgs that seem less than reliable
