MarkInTexas Posted March 2, 2018 Author Share Posted March 2, 2018 Thanks, Jefmil50! Just an update, retro came through ok, received a bit more retro, plus regular recurring payment on March 1st, so everything is going smoothly. No BBE in the mail yet, but I'll give it a few more days to get here in the mail. In the past, the package always seemed to take more than a week to get from Houston to my part of the woods. Side note, do I need to notify the VA medical center folks about my rating increase to remove the co-pay requirements, as well as ask for reimbursement for the prescription co-pays I have paid out starting with my EED? Or will they automatically do that and refund me? (I'm guessing y'all will tell me that I will have to do that as well.) If so, how do I go about requesting a refund? Y'all have a great weekend!

MarkInTexas Posted March 17, 2018 Author Share Posted March 17, 2018 Another update.......finally got my BBE in the mail, so that's done. Confirmed everything I see in eBenefits and in my payments, so I guess I can breathe that final sigh of relief. Also received a small check in the mail yesterday from the Treasury Department for a refund on the VAMC co-pays I have paid on medical going back to this latest EED date where they brought me up to 80%. I had to contact the VAMC billing folks to ensure that my new rating was in their system, and while they were updating it, I also asked for a refund for the co-pays. (Yes, you have to ask them to do the audit so that you can receive the refund.) After a few days, the check arrived. The march forward continues on to the BVA now on the outstanding conditions and original EED. Good luck to all of you and thanks once again for the help and support I have received on here through the years. Have a great weekend!
