I'm only 40% disabled, but I've only used VA services twice (initial evaluation)... because I don't trust them to provide the best care (and I'm very stubborn). So I've relied (to date) on a combination of my TRICARE coverage, and civilian medical providers. It was easier in South Carolina, when I had access to TRICARE Prime and military medical facilities (not an option here).
