Question
Doc8482M8404
When does the Choice program 30 day clock start?
Example; you see VA doc for X and they recommend you for evaluation for X, now department head gets consulte sends it to provider in department does not want to see you, found in consulte notes, then department head says see him and schedules you for appointment. That is within 30 days of department head saying to see you then you tell PCP you don’t want to see that dr. He says you have to because it’s within 30 days. So you see quack dr 36 days after you seen the first dr. Consult is talked bounced back and forth for 8 days
So what starts the clock?

It is supposed to start from the time you request or are referred for an appointment. If you do the math and it is over 30 days, request the Choice program. Don't count on them to proactively bring up

Thanks, Vync I’v been to a private expert and they are writing a treatment plan, and the plus side to this is they are a Choice provider. What I'm looking for is the written guidelines An
