[Waynesworld]

Has anyone ever used a company called "Veteran Compensation and Pension Medical Consulting Services" The companies CEO is Jim Hill.

If you feel your evidence would warrant an increase from 30 to 50 (the rating info is here under the VA Schedule of Ratings) I dont feel you would need to consider this outfit.

You might need an independent medical opinion, but that fee would be determined by the IMO doctor with no middlemen.

if you tell us what your SC is for, we can help more.

I've been contacted by this company as well.

There Claim to fame is this "lifestyle impact claim" which Is just a claim for Chronic pain disorder which falls under a mental health condition according the VA.  (I could be wrong but this is just the info that I found). So if you have a mental health condition then this claim will do you no good.

I can see where they could help someone who does not want to do the leg work on there claim, say they have kids and full time job or say that person doesn't have 2 - 10 grand to pay for there own IMO. And If you look at return on investment that 4 months fee that they charge is small.

I think in this instance I'm going to withhold judgment until I hear from more people who have used them in the past. They claim to have worked a crazy number for claims in the past.

An unsolicited contact by a VA Lawyer or anyone else purporting to be able to do anything, for a Fee, is suspect.

If you think your eligible for a Specific Comp Rating, file the FDC with all the Med Evidence attached, even if you think the VA already has the Evidence, better safe than sorry, right.

Why would you want to pay for something that you should be able to do on your own? Somewhere down the Claims road, you may need the VA Lawyer at 20% of your Retro $$, certainly not yet. This outfit that contacted you, sounds like another form of Ambulance Chaser, only not an actual Lawyer.

If you had initiated the contact, might be a different story. Appears they probably paid for your contact info.

Sounds like an outfit I looked into back in 14 or 15, after seeing them trolling Hadit. A guy (Vet?) and his girlfriend, a (PA?) out near AZ or Vegas, were trying to hustle up IMO business for a New business they started. The girlfriend, a "PA," was doing the IMOs. In my opinion, paying upfront for a Medical Opinion from other than an actual MD/DO, preferably a Board Certified Specialist, would not be a prudent move.

Your Claim, your Decision.

Gastone, that concerned me too. How is this company getting email and/or phone # contact for disabled veterans?

"How is this company getting email and/or phone # contact for disabled veterans?"

Someone or some entity is selling the info? In the past, some of the veterans service orgs

sold data.

Anyway, there are public records that might also be used.

"The Game is Afoot."

Started me thinking, this guy posted on Hadit in early 15 or mid 14, not sure. Will have to check my Response posts from back in that area. As I recall, found that their New Company shared an office with an attorney in Az, I think.

There was another post on the Forum this am, from what should have been a "Paid Advertiser," for all sort of International Documents, all paid for up-front.

Can't say I've really read the Hadit Posting Policies for the Form, this just doesn't pass the Smell Test, with me.

Disguising an Ad as a Comp Forum Post, they'd be the last provider, I would think about using.
