When they send me the appointment paper's,VES gave me more paper's to fill out .Two weeks ago I went to a outside VES for blood test, xray and upper GI to check the status of my AO status with the PC, DMII, PN and IHD. I'm thinging that they would bring this up today when I saw the doctor at the Evaluation. When I got there, they made fill out a large amount of paper work . Which was the same ____ that I filled out before, and before, ETC , but more junk!! They did not even look at the paper work I fill out for the appointment.:angry: . Ok, thats ok? I remember ARMY! I guess we don't have carbon paper anymore, so this is there way to making copies :wacko: . Ok,, back to the subject. This test was joke, and a waste of good american money. Do they think American Veteran's are trying to waste tax payer money to play these game's. There I go again. Back to the story. They were very nice and treated me with honor, But such a waste!! The doctor found the same thing my private Doctor's found. I guess VA can delay my other disability for a time. Maybe it is faster, They say it increase the time by two months! In real time thats a year? :sad: Time is not on everybodies side! I love this country

Sorry for the extra paperwork but I wanted to make the statement that I have nothing but good things to say about VES. It is my personal opinion that the only reason my claims were adjudicated fairly were because they were VES contract physicians. VES has always done right by me and I would say to anyone who has a C & P scheduled with them to just relax. If you truly have a medical disability, VES will treat you right.

Well your proably right, and of course you are right. I'm a little mad at the whole system and how they hide this and all these problem's. They knew 20, 30 years ago and did they try to help. I don't trust them and never more!

I said that these doctor's were great, but redunant. I don't have time to play the Vietnam Game any more and they were hoping we would be dead by now!!!!! Thank you

The VA is made up of teaching hospitals that do research and of course they know a lot of things just due to the numbers that they do not inform Veterans about. They knew about diabetes and Agent Orange but made a lot of Veterans still prove a link. Sometimes I hate the bastards and their tactics to limit government exposure to legitimate claims from Veterans.

How many times were we told when we served that if anything happened Uncle Sam would take care of us. That was to make up for the poor pay, loss of our freedom and the crap duty assignments.

I am pretty sure that there are other reasons that Veterans have diabetes and I bet that the VA knows it for sure and yet we hear nothing.

Veterans deserve real choice for their health care.

      VA Disability Payment Schedule for 2025

    • These decisions have made a big impact on how VA disability claims are handled, giving veterans more chances to get benefits and clearing up important issues.

      Service Connection

      Frost v. Shulkin (2017)
      This case established that for secondary service connection claims, the primary service-connected disability does not need to be service-connected or diagnosed at the time the secondary condition is incurred 1. This allows veterans to potentially receive secondary service connection for conditions that developed before their primary condition was officially service-connected. 

      Saunders v. Wilkie (2018)
      The Federal Circuit ruled that pain alone, without an accompanying diagnosed condition, can constitute a disability for VA compensation purposes if it results in functional impairment 1. This overturned previous precedent that required an underlying pathology for pain to be considered a disability.

      Effective Dates

      Martinez v. McDonough (2023)
      This case dealt with the denial of an earlier effective date for a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU) 2. It addressed issues around the validity of appeal withdrawals and the consideration of cognitive impairment in such decisions.

    • I met with a VSO today at my VA Hospital who was very knowledgeable and very helpful.  We decided I should submit a few new claims which we did.  He told me that he didn't need copies of my military records that showed my sick call notations related to any of the claims.  He said that the VA now has entire military medical record on file and would find the record(s) in their own file.  It seemed odd to me as my service dates back to  1981 and spans 34 years through my retirement in 2015.  It sure seemed to make more sense for me to give him copies of my military medical record pages that document the injuries as I'd already had them with me.  He didn't want my copies.  Anyone have any information on this.  Much thanks in advance.

    • Caluza Triangle defines what is necessary for service connection
      Caluza Triangle – Caluza vs Brown defined what is necessary for service connection. See COVA– CALUZA V. BROWN–TOTAL RECALL

      This has to be MEDICALLY Documented in your records:

      Current Diagnosis.   (No diagnosis, no Service Connection.)

      In-Service Event or Aggravation.
      Nexus (link- cause and effect- connection) or Doctor’s Statement close to: “The Veteran’s (current diagnosis) is at least as likely due to x Event in military service”
