Pn Challenge Response
Fwd: PN Challenge Response Many of your were hoping we would get a positive response from our Challenge on Peripheral Neuropathy. I would suggest it is all in vain, as neither Congress nor the NAS/IOM want to hear the issues. _http://www.2ndbattalion94thartillery.com/Chas/PNChallengeResponse.htm_'>http://www.2ndbattalion94thartillery.com/Chas/PNChallengeResponse.htm_ (http://www.2ndbattalion94thartillery.com/Chas/PNChallengeResponse.htm) We tried anyway. We can take pride in that effort. Kelley

Claim For Compensation, Form Letter Schedule
Is there is an automatic schedule for "we are still processing your claim" letters? I got my second letter that "apolgizes for the delay". I diligently try to keep busy with my daily life, but still finding myself anxiuosly "waiting out" VA's decision on my depression claim . I have met veterans who choose not to apply for compensation because of the stress, probably the ones who have hard time attending veterans services and parades. I envy their choices and stand in for them when possible. Thanks Hadit family,cg

Made It To Ratings.....
VA confirmed my claim went to ratings board 5/25/07. This was a claim for increase on a previous 0% rating granted in 88. Doc at C&P cited same diagnosis as first claim (thoracic strain, degenerative arthritis). In my physical the ROM for forward flexion was 25, and the examiner did not state it was normal for body habitus. I have had no trauma or occupations that would contribute to or aggravate the Service Condition. What other excuses will they possibly bring up to deny or lowball the claim (besides flately ignoring the CFR)? Any idea on how long it takes in ratings? Best regards, Tyler

Gao Report
http://vawatchdog.org/07/nf07/nfMAY07/nf053007-3.htm Larry Scott highlighted this part: "But, the most compelling piece of information is the paragraph below. Read it carefully...it suggest that it's time for a complete and radical overhaul of the VA disability ratings system." per Larry- "There is also a need to consider more fundamental reform of the VA disability compensation program, particularly with regard to its disability criteria and field structure. VA eligibility criteria for disability continue to be based primarily on physicians’ and lawyers’ estimates made in 1945 of the effects of service-connected impairments on the average individual’s abil…

A Little Warning For All -
Only keep in the bank that which you can afford to lose. I divorced 7 yrs ago. Last month I had $65 dollars deducted from my SSDI deposit as a recovery for charges to ChampVA, by my ex, after our divorce. Somehow they used my SS number. Anyway after 2 weeks of dealing w/ChampVA I was able to straighten it out. To date I've received a $17 refund check from ChampVA(the administration fee) and am awaiting the balance from the treasury. Tomorrow's deposit is short another $65. Just when you think you're free of the BS, here it comes again, seven yrs later. I'll recover the funds but is the aggravation it causes worth it! Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!! pr
