Question
Donna Kelley
I read in a previous post about something else that I was not aware of. I am beginning to get a bit angry, not sure if it as at myself for not being being education or those holding the big secret. This is the post
"“The Quick Pay Disability initiative enables Veterans service representatives to fast-track payments to Veterans who have submitted sufficient evidence to decide all or part of a claim. The program covers a wide range of medical conditions, including diabetes mellitus and prostate cancer for Vietnam-era Veterans as well as surgery or joint replacement for a previously service-connected condition. These claims require minimal supporting evidence, allowing VA to process Veterans’ claims and submit payment approximately three months faster than the targeted 125-day cycle period. “
I retired on 01 May 2010, had both hips replaced prior to retirement date, and a discectomy for degenerative disc disease. Yes, I was awarded, 90% for SC disabilities, then in August of 2011, I required a spinal fusion for the rapid degenerative. I was also awarded SSDI dating back to my retirement date, + the standard 6 months. I mailed all of my information to my POA, who in turn directed it to the RO, it was all finally posted in February, this year. I did all of the administrative work up front, surgical report, SSDI findings and finally a request for IU (after I found out about that from a 1-800 lady). Did I also miss something on Quick Pay? I feel so stupid for not asking more questions, but I also think that if I have a POA, who I have spoken too, someone would have ensured that I was aware. Sorry if it sounds like I am whinning, just a little cranky, Donna
