a proposal to force private insurance companies to pay for the treatment of who have suffered service-connected disabilities and injuries. The Obama administration recently revealed a plan to require private insurance carriers to reimburse the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) in such cases.
There's nothing in there that says that the veterans are paying anything. This is about the employers (and insurers) of reserve servicepeople who drop their employees' insurance the minute they get called up for active duty. I fail to see how this is a bad thing.
