Question

I have a C&P with QTC this Thursday for a reconsideration fr my back and knees. The did not test me per the DaLuca v Brown standards. Hopefully I will be granted an increase for my back, I am hoping for 50% or higher but will be pleased with 40% (I am currently at 20%). I will assume I will get 10% for each knee.
I received a call from QTC about an hour ago wanting to confirm an appointment for Friday at 8 am, this confused me since I have an appointment for Thursday at 1:30 pm. So I called QTC and asked what this appointment was for (it was 3 hours away from where I live) and was told it was actually for the doctor to do a medical opinion on the C&P I will have on Thursday. I do not understand why a doctor who will not be seeing me will write a medical opinion on me for a C&P that is performed by a different doctor.
Is this normal and will they actually write two medical opinions for my back and knees? Sorry I just don't understand why two different doctors are involved (especially when only one will be seeing me).
Does this happen often?
Thanks for any and all input.

SSDI did that to me as well. Probably something the va adapted to under the new vamp system to get more exams done in a day. Personally I don’t think its accurate measure for the veteran to give a med
