My new hire packet included a physical for employment. There is no longer a TB test requirement. (I hate that shot in the arm.) I called the VA clinic to get an appointment. The closest they could get me in was July! Yes, due to the increased amount of veterans entering the system after Obama-care's required insurance, there is a backlog for appointments. The only way the backlog can be fixed is to hire more doctors, nurses and support personnel. (I will get down off the soapbox now.) The only solution was to find a cheap urgent care option to give me a physical.
Solution:
Kroger offers a Little Clinic in their store. I paid my fee and was in and out in 20 minutes. Toby did his physical just in case he needed one.
Now, I can finally mail my new hire packet to Barrow!
