Anyone know what the average time is after a C&P to get the decision on a claim? I am scheduled for one and its the last thing in my claim that I have to do. Everything else is finished and I was hoping for a month after or so for it to go through.

It depends on the Regional Office and the area of the country you live in will determine the length of time. Secondly, the nature of the claim and what it is about will also play into the time frame.

I have seen C and Ps returned in as little as 2 weeks and some as long as a year. However, the average for most claims is usually 4 to 5 months.

anyone?

You may not have gotten answers because "C&P" is a VA term and this is section is about Social Security.

      Sleep apnea- does the DBQ cover the "medically necessary/required" language?

      chibears3531 posted a question in VA Disability Compensation Benefits Claims Research Forum,

      Hey everybody! Long time lurker, first time poster.

      My question is regarding the sleep apnea language that specifies that a prescription of a breathing assistance device is "medically necessary" for a 50% rating:

      Assuming that a vet is already prescribed a CPAP/APAP by the VA, does the sleep apnea DBQ portion under 2B "IS CONTINUOUS MEDICATION REQUIRED FOR CONTROL OF A SLEEP DISORDER CONDITION?" fulfill that language requirement?

      Berta posted a question in Veterans Compensation & Pension Exams,

      As you all know, C & P exam results control almost all types of claims. VA employees have no choice but to go along with a negative C & P exam that will deny a claim. Some vets are quite willing to rebutt faulty exams and ask for a new C & P exam. For others, it will take a costly IMO/IME in most cases.

      Lumbosacral Strain and Vertebrae fractures caused by osteopenia

      kegs posted a question in VA Disability Compensation Benefits Claims Research Forum,

      Hi.  I have a couple questions and welcome all recommendations for my disability claim.  I am currently 10% disabled for lumbosacral strain and deferred decision for this and vertebrae fractures caused by osteopenia.  I had a MRI February 2018 and results include moderate compression fracture of L1, mild to moderate compression fracture of L2, moderate to severe compression fracture of L3, mild compression fracture of T11.  Additionally, L3 moderate spinal canal stenosis, L2 mild to moderate retropulsion with mild spinal canal stenosis, multilevel degenerative changes, multilevel disc bulges, disc herniations, L1-L2 mild broad-based disc bulge with mild spinal canal stenosis, L2-L3 mild broad based disc bulge with mild to moderate spinal canal stenosis,  L3-L4 mild to moderate broad based disc bulge and severe bilateral neuroforaminal narrowing.   I have read that these malfunctions should have been claimed individually.  Will the VA evaluate/rate each condition separately?  If not, I may have to appeal or submit a new claim.  What are some thoughts and suggestions.  Do these disabilities belong in the lumbosacral strain or the vertebrae fractures caused by osteopenia.  I am totally in the dark on this stuff.  I am pretty sure no diagnosis codes have been assigned.  What can I do to support my claim?  HELP!!!!!

      How To Ignore Members Who Annoy You

      I'd love it if we all got along, no one had a bad day and everyone respected each other however, living in the real world it just doesn't work that way.

      If you find a member adds no value to your knowledge on a topic hover over their name and then choose Ignore User. You cannot ignore moderators and admins but you can ignore others.

      Thousands of veterans have come here for over 20 years to find answers and support. I wish we could help each and every veteran, but some we cannot. Sometimes folks just rub each other the wrong way and that is where the Ignore User feature comes in. Ignore the user and move on...
