[Left Hip Pain]

Have ongoing progressive Left hip pain. Any opinions on VA care or outside care. Am lucky enough to have a choice. VA no co-pay outside co-pay. How is VA orthopedic?

[What next?]

No I am happy with my rating. Long story short there were two claims and one was closed.

[What next?]

I have been awarded disability for PC 40%, IHD 10%, and ED o% SMC-k. I have not had any exams at all. What can I expect from the VA as far as follow up reviews or exams?

Thanks in advance

[Benefits]

Thanks for the reply.

Can you also tell me if I get a different ID card? 

[Benefits]

Probably redundant if so I apologize
 I just received a rating of IHD 10%, PC 40%.= 50%. 
My question is what benefits am I entitled to with a 50% rating. Have not been to a VA doctor so I am confused as to my next step to see a VA doctor. I am enrolled and have seen a eye doctor. Will they only treat my disabilities? Want all I am entitled to but no more.
Thanks

It would be easier to find out how a female mind works than to figure out how/when/why VA posts to ebenefits.  Of course, there is no set reason, no set schedule, and its done willy nilly, if at all.  

If you figure out the former, then, of course, you would be a zillionaire, at a minumum, as millions have tried and no one has suceeded.

Before you get the the "big leagues", start on some small project such as Ending World hunger, Veteran homelessness, or solving climate change.  

If you ask 10 VA employees, you will get 11 different answers.  

If you ask 100 females, you will get 150 different answers, as at least half will change their mind.  

Funny but true. Thanks

Thank you for your reply and for your service.

They said they found two claims and closed one in order to merge them into one claim with a file number. I just can't see it listed under works in progress so I can't track the claim, I have had no C&P exams for either of two disabilities. Peggy said someone worked on it as of 4/24/17, but did not say what was done. They also said they would be in contact by snail mail when they wanted something from me. I am in no hurry but would like to track the claim.

Good Morning all you VETs

Who or what updates my status in EBenefits. I filed a claim in Dec 2016. on April 6 it changed from GOE to complete, Decision letter sent. Have not received a letter and claim is now under Historical claims. Peggy says someone found a duplicate claim, from where I will never know. They closed the claim and opened another claim with a file number. I cannot see or track a claim in Work in Progress. So who or what updates Claim status in Ebennies?
