diabetes Med Ops

[Berta]

They just got my stuff and said No problem at all in getting another IMO to support my other IMOs- I thought they were getting me a an Oral Pathologist IMO based on my evidence but they said an Internist can tie it all in together better to the AO diabetes so I said that would be swell.

They have been doing some IMos for vets represented by the VVA out of Des Moines.

It is so nice to talk to someone who understands my claim and gets it all- right away-it took Med Ops mere minutes to comprehend my claim and the evidence and yet it has been at VARO for almost 5 years-and they have not even read the evidence yet.

The RO told me it appears to have gone to a different DRO again-yesterday-

( are they looking for one who can read?)

I wonder if I could get this new IMO delivered to the RO attached to some brightly colored helium filled party balloons-and am still thinking about the flourescent paper-

to copy it on-with glitter-

or maybe enclose it in a big Christmas card to the VARO with a pop up inside with all my IMOs pasted on the pop up-

or stick it inside a big pizza box and have the pizza delivered to them-

I know how riduculous this all sounds but over 5 thousand bucks worth of IMOs finally deserves some consideration from the VA-ya think?

I make them pull up the Covers Screen- it gives the whereabouts of the physical presence of the claim and the most recent movement-

Good for you Berta. Hope that they can read and follow the law and regulations.

Caller ID.Same same here.cg

A little off-subject, but when I called my POA, see below, the VSO never asked my name, SSN, or C#.... and he knew who it was and had my VA file up looking at it immediately. Interesting. ????

PS. I still want to know who MedOps is and their web site, pls. I found Med Opinions, but they are based out of MA. Thanks.

Berta,

if any of those work, let us know so we can all follow suit! ;-)

Thanks for the laugh, keep us posted on when you finally win your claim.

Thanks for all the help you give us,

All IMO doctors and Med Ops-want the cash with the records you send them -unless there is some other arrangement you can make-

There is no guarantee that a medical opinion will render the statements you want.

They go completely by what the medical evidence reveals.If the evidence is there, they will highlight it with a full medical rationale in the opinion.

Two of my IMOs cost $2,000 each and this one-from Med Ops- I was quoted $2100 at first-but then when they learned of what my evidence was they lowered it to $1750.

It depends on how much medical evidence they have to read-

they usually need to read everything you have-

In my case most of the malpractice was already established-

except for AO diabetes-2 IMOs I already have and a brief third freeby IMO concur with that and this opinion will only need to concur- based on additional evidence I had that Dr. Bash did not use in his IMO.

Dr. Bash and Med Ops can usually give you an estimate by phone or email of the fee.
