I Got The C&p Result!?!?!?!

Rate this question

Question

It was back in 05 I started this claim it was not complex in any way but the VA made it complex to fire off a denial without even looking at it and went so far to set me up for my 1st C&P's as complete bullsh#t and even tried to get a Borderline Personality Disorder, Thin very thin..This was to see if I would run my claim through 1 more time, except others had prepared me with Hadit.com this time to come correct, here are the results of my 2nd round of C&P's.. Any guesses on how it will turn out this time? Last time it was denials across the board......Thanks for your replies.

Larry you mean the VARO induced PTSD? It's amazing how many veterans and their wives get that version of it, isn't it? I don't think veterans realize filing a claim with the VA will take longer than most of them spent in service, who knew the longest battle of our military careers would be with the VA? none of us I am sure.

100% SC P&T PTSD 100% CAD 10% Hypertension and A&A = SMC L, SSD

I think percentage wise there will be enough to get TDIU. The VA is still trying to use the boderline personality thing to qualify Yoggie's overall mental health. Moderate impairment due to PTSD should get at least 30% and with the 40% for the back that is 70%. The doctor seemed to waffle on his ability to work due soley to his SC disorders. Yoggie has to wait until he gets the rating decision and then if they deny TDIU for some absurd reason go back and get the IMO to rebut there reasoning for denying it. I remember I got 70% and the VA denied TDIU because of NSC condition I had which was a minor condition compared the the SC condition. How can a person like Yoggie have just a moderate impairment if he has Major Depression and PTSD plus chronic pain from his back. Often it is two steps forward and one step back with the VA. I know I had to fight for every benefit I ever got from them. However, every step forward brings you closer to your goal and Yoggie's report does bring him closer because they admit PTSD. That opens all doors and means that TDIU is inevitable given the circumstances. Not giving a GAF score I don't understand. I see this exam as a step forward.

They have admitted PTSD for MR Vet as well and then they changed it even though it is in their SSOC-so who knows?

Yoggie, I wish the best however the VA can screw almost anything up. I have a gaf of 46-my symptology is in the 70% range and 3 docs said I was not employable due to my PTSD.

I got 50% PTSD, no IU, they didn't even infer IU or include it in my rating decision.

I hope your RO is better then mine.

Yoggie, you know as well as all of us that when it comes to the VA, who can say.

The C&P looks good for all intent and purposes. How the rater interprets it will be the defining answer. I am positive with and for you. The fight with the VA is way to exhausting...hope it all works out this time. Best regards!!

I agree you never know and it does suck what little life you have left out of you, they can turn on anything they turned on me at the DRO hearing I personally feel I had them dead to rights with more than I needed evidence wise with treating Doc's. This was what I felt a last ditch effort to abort the obvious and find some way to lesson the blow or pull me back from IU or even PT. These C&P's were at the request of the rater after I had to hand him my claim warped in a bow with no outs at the DRO hearing.. He could have rated my claim 5 months ago and as far as I am concerned he has put me in an even better position that was very unexpected..at least it feels that way..Yog

    • VA has gotten away with (mis) interpreting their  ambigious, , vague regulations, then enforcing them willy nilly never in Veterans favor.  

      They justify all this to congress by calling themselves a "pro claimant Veteran friendly organization" who grants the benefit of the doubt to Veterans.  

      This is not true, 

      Proof:  

          About 80-90 percent of Veterans are initially denied by VA, pushing us into a massive backlog of appeals, or worse, sending impoverished Veterans "to the homeless streets" because  when they cant work, they can not keep their home.  I was one of those Veterans who they denied for a bogus reason:  "Its been too long since military service".  This is bogus because its not one of the criteria for service connection, but simply made up by VA.  And, I was a homeless Vet, albeit a short time,  mostly due to the kindness of strangers and friends. 

          Hadit would not be necessary if, indeed, VA gave Veterans the benefit of the doubt, and processed our claims efficiently and paid us promptly.  The VA is broken. 

          A huge percentage (nearly 100 percent) of Veterans who do get 100 percent, do so only after lengthy appeals.  I have answered questions for thousands of Veterans, and can only name ONE person who got their benefits correct on the first Regional Office decision.  All of the rest of us pretty much had lengthy frustrating appeals, mostly having to appeal multiple multiple times like I did. 

          I wish I know how VA gets away with lying to congress about how "VA is a claimant friendly system, where the Veteran is given the benefit of the doubt".   Then how come so many Veterans are homeless, and how come 22 Veterans take their life each day?  Va likes to blame the Veterans, not their system.   
    • Welcome to hadit!  

          There are certain rules about community care reimbursement, and I have no idea if you met them or not.  Try reading this:

      https://www.va.gov/resources/getting-emergency-care-at-non-va-facilities/

         However, (and I have no idea of knowing whether or not you would likely succeed) Im unsure of why you seem to be so adamant against getting an increase in disability compensation.  

         When I buy stuff, say at Kroger, or pay bills, I have never had anyone say, "Wait!  Is this money from disability compensation, or did you earn it working at a regular job?"  Not once.  Thus, if you did get an increase, likely you would have no trouble paying this with the increase compensation.  

          However, there are many false rumors out there that suggest if you apply for an increase, the VA will reduce your benefits instead.  

      That rumor is false but I do hear people tell Veterans that a lot.  There are strict rules VA has to reduce you and, NOT ONE of those rules have anything to do with applying for an increase.  

      Yes, the VA can reduce your benefits, but generally only when your condition has "actually improved" under ordinary conditions of life.  

          Unless you contacted the VA within 72 hours of your medical treatment, you may not be eligible for reimbursement, or at least that is how I read the link, I posted above. Here are SOME of the rules the VA must comply with in order to reduce your compensation benefits:

    • Good question.   

          Maybe I can clear it up.  

          The spouse is eligible for DIC if you die of a SC condition OR any condition if you are P and T for 10 years or more.  (my paraphrase).  

      More here:

      Source:

      https://www.va.gov/disability/dependency-indemnity-compensation/

      NOTE:   TO PROVE CAUSE OF DEATH WILL LIKELY REQUIRE AN AUTOPSY.  This means if you die of a SC condtion, your spouse would need to do an autopsy to prove cause of death to be from a SC condtiond.    If you were P and T for 10 full years, then the cause of death may not matter so much.
