diabetes Va Training & Fast Letters--Do You Have Hard Copies?

[fanaticbooks]

I just went through my hubby's medical records and found some letters I had printed when working his claim. They cover diabetes, cardiovascular and C&P stuff.

It will take awhile to post them since I will have to type them into the computer. Some of them are already posted but others not. Will have to check.

I started thinking about all of the veterans in here and how a lot of research had to be done, especially the ones over many years....

Do you have copies of any of the Training or Fast Letters or Directives hidden away in your documents?

I would love to get my mitts on these. I am willing to take scanned attachments in an email. I have NO objection to having to type them back into the computer to get them online.

If any who feel like it could go through their files and send me these, I would let you know my email or maybe it could be attached in here? I notice there is an "Attach This FIle" button. Just any that are NOT POSTED in the Training & Fast Letter Forum on Hadit.

I think it could be of help to other veterans.

thanks for checking.

Fanasticbooks-

The Nehmer Training Guide you have link to includes the Cardiovascular ratings they will use for the new IHD claims as well as any other cardio related claims.

I need to try to find my 3 1/2 for the 1997 Diabetes Training letter and will attach it for you if I find it.It is 17 pages long and I helped a local vet succeed after 12 years by going over his SMRs and this 1997 training letter very carefully.

The ADA diabetes criteria changed in 1997 so I used this training letter to support my DMII posthumous claim for my husband.It has a wealth of info the newer Diabetes Training letter doesnt have.

I had to prove he had DMII under the old criteria as well as the new.

It wouldn't come up often that a DMII vet would need this older letter but if I find it I will post it.

I am sure I posted it on the older hadit board.

Thank You Berta.

It is the older versions I would like to find. I agree they might have additional information that can enhance a claim. Also there are older claims out there still being worked. Would like to provide info that maybe will help those claims.

If you can get it to me, I will get it posted.
