SPO Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 Has anyone been scheduled for an in person C&P recently through one of the VA contractors even though VA facilities are closed?

0 deedub75 Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 I have some waiting to be scheduled with LHI but their website is still saying that they can’t conduct them yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 HadIt.com Elder GBArmy Posted May 22, 2020 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted May 22, 2020 It is going to be phased in in steps. At the present time no in-person C&P's are being done yet. The VA has released some exams to be done if they can be adequately eval by what is in your file already. I had one 2 weeks ago and although I was told to sit by for a call if needed, nothing came in. These exams are called ACE and if the examiner putting the data together in your C&P finds that they can't complete it without further (in-person) evidence, they are supposed to kick it back to the VA. A lot of these ACE exams have been done recently, but it is too early to say whether or not they work or not in the veterans' favor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 SPO Posted May 22, 2020 Author Share Posted May 22, 2020 (edited) Looks like I’ll be in a holding pattern for a while. Mine needs ROM. since they are trying to use ACE can they pick and choose the parts of a c&p to consider as acceptable info? Or is it all or nothing?

0 HadIt.com Elder GBArmy Posted May 22, 2020 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted May 22, 2020 SPO What a C&P examiner is SUPPOSED to do is to review and evaluate ALL the evidence concerning your disability. However, the VA has been known to lose or not consider some. It is out of your hands until you get a decision letter. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 SPO Posted May 22, 2020 Author Share Posted May 22, 2020 I was taking more about the rater. I’m on supplemental so wondering if they will try to ACE based of my new info (confirmed diagnosis and nexus) and ROM from my old c&p. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well most of what the rater gets feed back or his report from the C&P EXAMINER is usually what the raters go by, but not always sometimes a rater is fairly sharp at caching a mistake the C&P Examiner made. The raters also have a rating Manuel to help them if they can't decipher what the C&P Examiner said in his/her report. ACE EXAMS HAVE YET TO BE DETERMINED RATHER OR NOT THEY WILL BE OR CAN BE FAVORABLE TO THE VETERAN AS GB ARMY MENTION. I am not an Attorney or VSO, any advice I provide is not to be construed as legal advice, therefore not to be held out for liable BUCK!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
