RAMP claim

Rate this question

Question

My ramp claim was closed 12-19-18. I was ordered new exams for migraines and GERD by the higher level review officer. This part of my claim was closed without me going to any exams at all and recently I finally got it re opened on 5-22-19. It now has an estimated completion date of 2021. 

On 12-21-19; (should have put 2018 as year) my rep told me that I will be receiving notification to attend exams at the first of the year per his conversation with HLR. 

How do I get this changed to get my exams like I was supposed to have in January? 

The Peggy line is not a very good resource for this. 

I also have the paperwork from my C file of the HLR saying new exams.

''It now has an estimated completion date of 2021''

This date will change  they usually put a longer date up until they can get a better date or earlier date.  so  it should change .

on e benfit's it changes daily/weekly/monthly

or you can go to the C&P Office and check with the C&P Chief  or C&P office manager request the change.

This is an amazing Rep.  He is able to predict what he (will) tell you this coming December.  Since he knows what will happen this December, maybe he can give me some advice, too, on what will happen in the future?

Maybe not.  You probably meant 12-21-18.  

    Nobody likes the "snails pace" VA moves at, including c and p exams.  I think it may be too late to get any c and p exams scheduled for January, 2019.  But you may get one scheduled in June, 2019 or later.  

    My suggestion is you dont fret over the date that ebenefits says..or that your rep says.  You probably have more serious problems to worry about.  There is not much you can do about "changing the date" of the c and p exam, but you can try a phone call to your rep explaining to him what you did to us.  That is, if you can get him to return your calls...I havent been able to get a VSO to return calls ever.  Their phones must be "one way" phones where you can call them, but they cant call out except to solicit donations for VFW, DAV etc.

If you want to speed things up, you can download the DBQs yourself, and seek private physicians to do them. I did and HADIT with the C&P exams that are all denied. So I went to the RO and complained and the dude said that I was jumping the shark and my gut was wrong. Sure enough it was denied and the C&P examiner still gets paid, total waste of tax payers money.
