Question
seminoles
My pcp filled out the form and marked it was for my sc conditions, listed them and marked in box 23 that I needed help with toileting, hygiene, feeding, meds, etc. at least 7-10 days a month. When I go on ebenefits it says under pending disabilites smc s for agoraphobia (I am not rated for agoraphobia). I have a diagnosis of panic disorder with agoraphobia which the mh cp dismissed as secondary to my sc mh condition. The need for aid and attendance is related to my other service connected issues. Does this seem odd and should I submit something to correct this?
