If a veteran is already rated SC 90% Combined rating and VA rater jump him up to the extra scheduler to get TDIU P&T For only one SC disability because this disability keeps him from working and his age is over 55 & He Had this rating over ten years concurrent AS to be of nature with no future exams schedule.
Now Another disability as come up
And the VAMC PCP Doc sends Him to MH and MH Doc & a NP diagnose him with MDD/PTSD.
Does this veteran need to file a new claim for the metal disorders? or will the VA send his medical records to his Regional Office for A Expedite /Forward claim? and the veteran don't have to do anything?
or should he try to gather evidence/stressors ect,,ect,, and Get this Mental Disorder SC?& Rate %and expect a C&P for this new condition? of course be his choice.
Trying to help a veteran and I'm not very familiar with the MDD/PTSD Regs just from what I Read I can't find anything on this type question?
......Thanks
