After 8 months heart is still in A-Fib. Cardiologist gave me 3 options

I would like to get a ablation, but I don’t know if Medicare covers it. I am also a Veteran and could check with them. Any veterans out there that could help?

1) If you were a veteran and assigned to Vietnam for one year or more, The VA will insure you under the "Boots On The Ground" program which started in 2023.
2) Ablation isn't nirvana. My ablation in 2022 was unsuccessful. The EP seemed more interested in lining her pockets by insisting on doing an ablation on me rather than on my well-being. Since then, Metoprolol is working fine for me.
