I went in for a C&P exam for PTSD and the clinician put in his report he thought it was CHRONIC adjustment disorder with mixed anxiety and depressed mood. The veteran definitely has features of PTSD but does not quite meet the criteria.
The claim completed and the rating is for PTSD not the other. During the review process the claim did say CHRONIC adjustment disorder with mixed anxiety and depressed mood but at the end was changed back to PTSD.
Is there any benefits to the veteran for having one over the other, PTSD or CHRONIC adjustment disorder with mixed anxiety and depressed mood?
