JC1948 Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 My C&P examiner stated on her report that she did not find objective evidence to support a diagnosis of claimed illness. Will this report cause my claim to be denied even though my neurologist reports I have the disease? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
halos2 Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 The VAMC examiner has more wt than any DR. NP are known to deny claims right and left and even though you may have valid information in the form of treatment records/medication/their exam results/IMO's and IME's the VARO uses the C&P exam "opinions" to grant or deny the claim. The largest part of veteran population, and especially those of us here have been fighting these flawed exams for years. Sorry to be the bearer of this news.

HadIt.com Elder Pete53 Posted July 30, 2010 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted July 30, 2010 What you need to do is get a second opinion that is favorable as soon as possible and submit it objecting to your C&P. Make sure the Doc sees the C&P so they can shred it Veterans deserve real choice for their health care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HadIt.com Elder john999 Posted July 30, 2010 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted July 30, 2010 Get an IMO or IME that will rebutt the findings of the C&P exam point by point. Even if you get another C&P exam it might be worse. Who pays for C&P exams? The VA pays for these exams. They work for the VA. You need a doctor who is working for you, and getting paycheck from you. Nobody at the VA is your friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
