Question
Martin K.
I have a claim for increased disability pending. I was seen by the VA physician a week ago and I saw in his report that he is asserting that my increased disability is not related to my current 30% service-connected disability by the lamest, through-the-looking-glass story you could imagine.
Can I ask the rating board to hold off on the decision until I can arrange for an IME (Independent Medical Examiner) to submit an evaluation of my chart?
The VFW has my power of attorney should I work through them?
Can I ask them what other decisions have been made in similar cases? If not, can I find that out somewhere?
Thanks
