1. 4/5Getting Better

   Over the past couple of years our VA locally has gone from simple unsecured free conference apps to using this program almost exclusively. With privacy concerns becoming more important than ever and now becoming fully compliant with HIPPA Privacy Laws I find that it is more comfortable talking about more sensitive medical concerns. This represents a giant step forward for appointments that should not be done in person. Unfortunately it is still a very poor substitute for appointments that need a physical examination and a spot on diagnosis. Most vets are not fully aware of what their different minor symptoms may mean and little issues become bigger issues very quickly. This is a good tool for informal follow up but over use will lead to bad healthcare.

2. 5/5Quit whining

   I think the VA has done an excellent job with this app. I use it on my iPad with WiFi and have had absolutely no problems at all. I did have an issue where the Doctor could not hear me so she left video on and called on the phone. After my appointment was over I realized that my volume on my iPad was all the way down. That was operator error, not a problem with the app. It is a safe and secure way to have a face to face with any doctor at the va. Is positioning of a camera that serious? I think that with everything that is going on in the world today that it is amazing how we as a “people” have adapted. At least I can see the people I am talking to. There is absolutely nothing wrong with this app. Absolute Kudos to the developers and again, thank you for sour service and or support.

3. 1/5It’s unreliable

   This app and VA video connect process has been nothing but problems. Did all the process the test my connection before the meeting and it worked no problem. Even had a VA employee reach out to me to test a video call with her and had problems connecting but we got there in the end. On the morning of my appointment that I had waited 3 weeks for I attempted to connect to the call via the appointment link they sent to my email. I even tried to connect to the call 15 mins early just to make sure there we no problems. I tried 6 different times to use the link just to be meet by a grey screen. Processed to try and call the VA hospital mental health office to try and resolve the issues and get further instructions were I was greeted by voicemail on three different attempts. I just wanted to get some help but it doesn’t look like that is going to happen. Again thanks for nothing VA. I can only imagine how many other people slip through the cracks as well.

4. 1/5Was this designed by VA technicians

   This app. works as good as my previous doctor at VA. Was this app. designed in a third world country because it functions poorly. Ineptitude is the standard throughout the whole VA system. I worked 13 years for state government and similar less than quality products were created and awards were given to the technicians for simply going live, no one cared how bad the thing worked. The problem is the same in local, state, and federal government, too many people are allowed to sit in positions for too long. They resist change because “we have always done it this way” and those who sit in a position for 30 years have never experienced other employment so industry best practices are never applied. When younger and brighter staff is hired, their input is ignored and shunned so this is the reason this app. doesn’t work correctly and will never work correctly. But like true government, very soon they will switch to an more inferior product happily.

5. 5/5Open it with safari!

   The app it self is a gateway to use for video connect. Once you receive the link in your (tablet, or cellphone) you will need to click on the link says “Telehealth scheduling Service system” click on “click here now to join VA video connect visit” then as the link opens up you will want to make sure it opens up in safari not google. To do this you will have to copy the link off of your google address - copy and open safari - past the address unto safari “web address” then open the link that way it will open it up. You will have to add your name and press “connect” and make sure to allow to use microphone and video. You should be later connected with your provider. Hope this helps!
