Question

Posted (edited)

Hi! Thanks for the nice comments about my successful 100% PTSD you all contributed to. Yep, I have a VA document saying 100% schedular rating granted for service connnected compensation Dated July 10, 2006.

Today I get a C&P Exam notice dated July 13, 2006, as a request from the VA Regional office. Exam date July 25, 2006.

I thought once they awarded you 100% comp., that finallized it, and they don't bug you with anymore exams??????????????

I also received another VA notice letter dated July 11th that they received my application for benefits and deciding if they want additional evidence.

ps. Maybe they are just trying to give me a heart attack so they don't have to pay me benefits :(

They don't bother you any more once you are rated as permanent and total.

When you received your decision did it discuss Chapter 35 benefits or Champ VA for your dependents? If it did then you shoul be T&P, if not and you are schedular and you will be scheduled for future exams.

JMO, but when you received your letter stating you were 100%, were all the claims you had in to the VARO decided at that point or did you have anything outstanding? Even though you were given 100% based on what they had decided at that point, if you had anything outstanding, this claim would have to be resolved. Maybe that is the reason for the C & P exam.

My husband was given his 100% rating I/U P&T. We were so happy. I knew there was a claim still sitting out there for cataracts that had not been decided, but I just assumed that since he was given the 100% rating that this claim would become moot. Not so. A few weeks after his decision letter came giving him his 100%, we receive another letter in the mail. Talk about being scared. When we opened it up, it was another decision letter granting him 10% s/c for his cataract. Again this was good news. No more money, but another claim approved.

This is why I ask if you still have any claims outstanding. C & P could be for that.

As an added note, when my husband got his 100% rating, they stated in his decision letter no more exams required.

1.Hi! Yes, there is a stapled package containing a Chapter 35 of title 38 US Code about dependents edu. assistance program.

2.Another stapled package states "100% Schedular rating granted." 100% PTSD

3.Another stapled package is a BVA for ISSUE: Evaluation of PTSD - Then toward the end: DECISION: PTSD increased to 100% It has a form to appeal, but I don't see why I would do that.

I'll call all of these people tomorrow and try to get the ducks in a row, and call my DAV rep.

Congrats you are P&T. You can even get an ID Card if you want one. Of all the benefits they give having the ID Card is something that has been very helpful to me.

Veterans deserve real choice for their health care.

    • 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”
