6:17 pm
march? i think the big take away is despite these allegations and all of these leaked taped that accuse him of being involved in that corruption, all of these protests that took place, throughout the country that we all watched last june, i think it says to him that he has a very good organized political system that the people -- his bridge remembersy and his increasing author tearism works. >> the idea that the feel that he is becoming an acting in a more authortive way. s there a way for the u.s. to kind of curb those instincts within him because he still remains in the country remains so important geopolitically? >> absolutely. turkey is a member of nato, it has some tough neighbors and it has russia to the north.

minimum wage in canada comes out higher at $7.81. france leads the pack with the equivalent of $10.60 an hour. only japan comes out lower the equivalent of $6.50 an hour. but countries like japan offer universal health coverage, so kit be agonad a japanese worker has fewer costs than an american working with no health benefits. >> what else are you working on. >> we are looking at something i know you care very deeply about, and that is paragraph. >> the thing he does before a show. >> good luck.

6:29 pm
6:30 pm
size of it, and the v.a.'s many challenges jonathan? >> yeah, a lot of challenge as big system with a lot of patients because it's been long waiting times. the veterans affairs back in 2011, the v.a. assisted that veterans must be seen by a doctor within two weeks of calling for an appointment. back then they said that was happening most of the time. 94% success rate. five lot of people doubted that number, so after federal inspectors look into it, they now admit they have no idea how long veterans are waiting for care. it's now workers line messing up paperwork, causes vets to wait possibly months. in 2003, it had 162 hospitals across the country. but over the years some have closed, now there are about ten fewer hospitals. and the agency has investigated in other areas like clinics. also, they were close to 6 million veterans enrolled in the healthcare system.
6:31 pm
be uh that number has been growing over the past ten years. now, close to 9 million veterans need medical care in the united states. this is from a lot of younger vets from iraq and afghanistan getting treated. and it goes back years and decades as we will get into. >> an on going problem, yep. >> jonathan, appreciate it. joining me now with more on this, is alex morgan, he is a retired army man, and served as safe writer of the department of veterans affairs. it is good to see you, thank you for your time. what is your reaction, first of all, and then we will get into more specifics to hearing these allegations that 40 veterans may have died while waiting for treatment? >> well, the first thing that comes to mind when these allegations happen in phoenix, i think the first thing we need to remember here is the
6:32 pm
difference between patient care and patient access. the issue we are seeing here, more of the patient access side. never been more patient satisfaction at the v.a., it's consistently rated the same as care at private hospitals. this is really an issue with access to care, that's been a historic problem, facing the v.a., going back decades like you said. so it's become the real issue, especially the last few weeks. it's been something that the v.a. has worked on. the refining and getting better, but clearly more to be done. >> so back in 2011, jonathan just mentioned this, the v.a. insisted veterans must be seen by doctors within two weeks. so what has been the issue the main set of issues in adhering to that standard? >> there's a multitude of issues. there's absolutely shortage of personnel, not just in the v.a. system, but in the private care system.
6:33 pm
there's a shortage of mental healthcare practitioners both in v.a. and in fright healthcare, so it is a public health concern, not necessarily a. >>a. one. but what we are seeing out of phoenix, and other centers, are these allegations of cooking the books and doctors the numbers to kind of depress down the wait times. and it's -- at the local level it is an absolutely problem, and one that the secretary outlined how he would address them, in the coming days and weeks. paying the i.g. investigation to see how far these problems are going to go. >> you think it is important to get that report before you hear the ratcheting up of calls to step down, correct? >> absolutely. the first thing we heard is 40 veterans were denied care and then died later.
6:34 pm
they haven't found one delayed to care. it has now becoming clear that it isn't so much -- >> yeah, it is being walked back, but that hasn't diminished the issue of veterans that are in need of care, that they are being denied it because of these low level bureaucrats. do you have a problem with the secretary saying i will get to work on the back lot when i took the job, at this point, we don't need him making excuses. right, we need him to fix the problem. do you agree with that? >> yeah, absolutely. i don't believe in calls for resignation, there needs to be some accountability below him, but he did inherit a
6:35 pm
troubled system. >> absolutely. he has improved a vast multitude of areas. that's been cut in half over the last year, but -- so the processing system for claims there's paper less electronic medical records that are being used right now. just getting to the low level of as you said. >> , 152 medical centers that's a lot to change. seven and you know he has been in the job for a long time, and he is making strides. i think it is clear that he needs to move quicker and move swiftly to still trust back into the v.a. system, that frankly is dangerous for veterans like myself, i have a father, that uses v.a., i have a grandfather and an uncle, he has agent orange issues so these are very serious concerns of mine on a personal level, on a professional level.
6:36 pm
so faith needs to be restored and that's on the v.a. side, and oles in the veterans group side, also something that congress really needs to take ahold of. this is a problem, so we need to make sure is we are in for the long haul. >> alex, appreciate it. from washington, d.c. alex, thank you. egyptian state media is reporting that detained al jazeera arab big correspondent has ended his hunger strike, but his family disputes the statement. this video was recorded last week, and leaked from his prison. he is still being held without charge, since he was arrested last august. he has been on hunger strike for more than 15 days. his family says he is now being held in solitary con finement.
