Look here.

"Obama is drawing high praise from veterans service organizations for proposing a Department of Veterans Affairs budget that would exceed by $1.3 billion what even the veterans groups suggested be spent next year.

No previous president has offered a VA spending plan that surpassed in size the “Independent Budget” presented to Congress by major veterans groups. Obama seeks to fulfill several promises made to veterans during his presidential campaign, including a big increase in VA healthcare budgets."

Further, AMVETS had this to say on their website:

"AMVETS is encouraged by President Obama's willingness to explore alternatives, and we look forward to working with the Administration to reach resolution on this issue."

During the meeting, Obama said that he would not institute service-connected billing of third-party insurance companies if it would ultimately hurt veterans in any way."
