0 63SIERRA Posted February 26, 2015 Author Share Posted February 26, 2015 Does the new rule mean that aside from other things, if you are hospitalized and notify the RO, it doesnt make it an inferred claim, and you must fill out a form before they will acknowledge it is a claim? like if you had an emergency surgery like cancer or something, ?

0 Berta Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 I think you mean this regulation.....I am unaware of any "new" convalesence regulations...anyone else know? https://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/38/4.30 I know that vets in the PTSD 21 day inhouse programs always traditionally had someone at the VAMC handle their temp 100% claims, if they already had an established rating for PTSD under 100%. I dont know about anyone else not in a structured 21 day program but hospitalized for a SC for 21 days or more, or fitting into the regs above in another way. GRADUATE !

When thousands of Americans faced annihilation in the 1800s Chief Osceola's response to his people, the Seminoles, was simply "They(the US Army)have guns, but so do we." Sameo to us -They (VA) have 38 CFR ,38 USC, and M21-1- but so do we. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 63SIERRA Posted February 26, 2015 Author Share Posted February 26, 2015 like me, I fell ill with kidney cancer and had to get surgery quick, after recovery I filed a claim. It was service connected eventually but they didnt pay me temp 100 percent for the cancer. I would think thats an inferred claim. even though I didnt file a claim until after surgery. (they are trying to screw me on this one as well) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 HadIt.com Elder Philip Rogers Posted February 26, 2015 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted February 26, 2015 (edited) 63SIERRA - Were you in a VAMC for your surgery?? If so, it would be considered an informal claim. As to a civilian hospital, I'm not sure but it would be worth looking into. jmo Do you currently have any VA rating(s)?? pr Edited February 26, 2015 by Philip Rogers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
