Berta - You and others may recall my previous note regarding my hearling loss and tinnitus claim. It included documentation that referrenced 'soldier demonstrates hearing loss and requires further evaluation' yet that never occurred and a number of claims have since been denied.
Follow up with my rep several weeks ago resulted in him tracking my paperwork down, found it was with the approvers to be completed, and at that point showed tinnitus was approved but hearing loss denied. I continue to follow up with the 800# almost daily. It goes from approval of one date to quoting a new date to another new date and so on. This leads me to frustration, curiosity, anger, and concern they've changed their mind on the tinnitus. If so, and if they haven't changed the hearing loss, I'll appeal. However, another note I read regarding 70% retro with a response from Carlie made me curious that maybe they recognize their mistake already without me having to file a CUE claim and the length of time waiting is a result of multiple approvals it may be going through. How many does it require??
