"Newly released audit figures from the Department of Veterans Affairs show nearly 1,600 local patients remain on waiting lists at Mann-Grandstaff VA Medical Center in Spokane because they cannot be scheduled for appointments in the next three months \u2014 more than the number of similar patients waiting at Seattle's VA Puget Sound facilities, which handle three times as many appointments.
