C&p Examiners Own Email Site In The Va

Rate this question


art1959

Question

I have been doing research on the C&P examiner email site for just C&P examiners started by 2 VA Psychologist who are C&P examiners . I also found that there was a site already in existence since 1977 which had their site moved to Google groups so they could not be investigated or any search engine see their emails. I have found the site before they moved and copied most emails before they were removed. this issue is very important and though it was reported to upper level people in the VA all they did was take down the wiki site started on Nov 13 2010. this in my opinion was done to cover there butt since no one could get emails from the site since it was password protected and you had to be approved by the site administrators who are C&P examiners but the worst part is it was for just C&P examiners and they have been posting their ideas and theory's that veterans are malingering or lying about PTSD. The one administrator states he believes the only one who has PTSD are rape victims. I am hoping the site administrators here would allow me to show the emails which by the way are public therefore under the fact they placed them on the internet are not private. I wonder how many claims were denied since C&P examiners that are Psychologist talk among themselves about C&P exams with other C&P Psychologist who don't even see the veteran and influence the outcome of the exam because of it. The site started on Nov 13 2010 was taken down on the 19th of Dec 2014 but the other site was moved yet still exist. I ask the site administrators here to allow me to show the evidence so as to inform all my brother and sisters who served and there is a lot of evidence to include for example one email showing group theropy notes. thank you for your time and is for some reason I cant,please feel free to contact me on here. god bless. artie

please do not post copies of emails here there is no way to verify them, you can add links to them. I believe this PDF A Practical Guide to Conducting VA Compensation

and Pension Exams for PTSD and Other Mental Disorders Mark D. Worthen & Robert G. Moering maybe something referred to this I've attached it.

the reason I do not want copied text attributed to this person or not, that is why links would be better.

I had originally attached the PDF itself but I changed it to the link above so there is no copyright or legal issue for us found it on this site Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims Bar Association

I just googled a bit and found it, but better to be safe than sorry so now you have the direct links to the site and the pdf. thanks rootbeer22

I am writing my memoirs and would love it if you could help a shipmate out and look at it.

I've had a few challenges, perhaps the same as you. I relate them here to demonstrate that we can learn, overcome, and find purpose in life.

The stories can be harrowing to read; they were challenging to live. Remember that each story taught me something I would need once I found my purpose, and my purpose was and is HadIt.com Veterans.

Thank you very much for the articles and info guys. It always helps to hear a little truth every now and then, even if it hurts!!! I actually multiple exams with a very nice C&P Doc last week, that lost his brother weeks before and his mother that day, he actually flew to another state for the funeral right after my exams. He was a God Send to say the least. I have had over 30 C&Ps in the last 2 years, and I have only met two nice C&P Docs.

Not surprising in the least. But heh we all know that the cards are stacked against up from the get go. The way to combat this is to be smart. Make it easy for them to rate it. Line up the evidence and let them do their thing. They will get caught in the lies and dig their own graves. Unfortunately, we have to wait to get through the process. They can have their BS websites and what ever, I can care less. We have Hadit, we the CFR's, we have USC, laws, regulations and so forth. We have tools that we can use to defeat the wrong doings. Unfortunately we may not have the time always. Slow is smooth, smooth is fast. Squeeze the trigger, don't pull. Line up the sight picture and acquire the target. Keep these things in mind and you can pull through the minefield that is the VA claims process. JMHO

    • VA has gotten away with (mis) interpreting their  ambigious, , vague regulations, then enforcing them willy nilly never in Veterans favor.  

      They justify all this to congress by calling themselves a "pro claimant Veteran friendly organization" who grants the benefit of the doubt to Veterans.  

      This is not true, 

      Proof:  

          About 80-90 percent of Veterans are initially denied by VA, pushing us into a massive backlog of appeals, or worse, sending impoverished Veterans "to the homeless streets" because  when they cant work, they can not keep their home.  I was one of those Veterans who they denied for a bogus reason:  "Its been too long since military service".  This is bogus because its not one of the criteria for service connection, but simply made up by VA.  And, I was a homeless Vet, albeit a short time,  mostly due to the kindness of strangers and friends. 

          Hadit would not be necessary if, indeed, VA gave Veterans the benefit of the doubt, and processed our claims efficiently and paid us promptly.  The VA is broken. 

          A huge percentage (nearly 100 percent) of Veterans who do get 100 percent, do so only after lengthy appeals.  I have answered questions for thousands of Veterans, and can only name ONE person who got their benefits correct on the first Regional Office decision.  All of the rest of us pretty much had lengthy frustrating appeals, mostly having to appeal multiple multiple times like I did. 

          I wish I know how VA gets away with lying to congress about how "VA is a claimant friendly system, where the Veteran is given the benefit of the doubt".   Then how come so many Veterans are homeless, and how come 22 Veterans take their life each day?  Va likes to blame the Veterans, not their system.   
    • Welcome to hadit!  

          There are certain rules about community care reimbursement, and I have no idea if you met them or not.  Try reading this:

      https://www.va.gov/resources/getting-emergency-care-at-non-va-facilities/

         However, (and I have no idea of knowing whether or not you would likely succeed) Im unsure of why you seem to be so adamant against getting an increase in disability compensation.  

         When I buy stuff, say at Kroger, or pay bills, I have never had anyone say, "Wait!  Is this money from disability compensation, or did you earn it working at a regular job?"  Not once.  Thus, if you did get an increase, likely you would have no trouble paying this with the increase compensation.  

          However, there are many false rumors out there that suggest if you apply for an increase, the VA will reduce your benefits instead.  

      That rumor is false but I do hear people tell Veterans that a lot.  There are strict rules VA has to reduce you and, NOT ONE of those rules have anything to do with applying for an increase.  

      Yes, the VA can reduce your benefits, but generally only when your condition has "actually improved" under ordinary conditions of life.  

          Unless you contacted the VA within 72 hours of your medical treatment, you may not be eligible for reimbursement, or at least that is how I read the link, I posted above. Here are SOME of the rules the VA must comply with in order to reduce your compensation benefits:

      https://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/38/3.344

       
    • Good question.   

          Maybe I can clear it up.  

          The spouse is eligible for DIC if you die of a SC condition OR any condition if you are P and T for 10 years or more.  (my paraphrase).  

      More here:

      Source:

      https://www.va.gov/disability/dependency-indemnity-compensation/

      NOTE:   TO PROVE CAUSE OF DEATH WILL LIKELY REQUIRE AN AUTOPSY.  This means if you die of a SC condtion, your spouse would need to do an autopsy to prove cause of death to be from a SC condtiond.    If you were P and T for 10 full years, then the cause of death may not matter so much.
