Has anyone out there been to the War Related Illness and Injury Study Center (WRIISC) that can share any information? I have a Vet who is seriously considering attending for Gulf War Illness related conditions and am trying to help gather as much information as possible. Her concerns include:
What is the average duration of stay?
How effective are they in educating and assisting Veterans dealing better with their illnesses?
Has anyone had their service connected disability percentage adversely effected by participating?
Are they actually acknowledging and dealing with conditions better than standard VA Primary Care physicians?
Can a Veteran receive any compensation while attending to offset lost income while participating?
We would appreciate anyone out there who can answer any of the above or who may have any other insight or concern regarding participating in this program.
