My apologies as I'm sure this question has probably been asked before in some way or fashion. Over the years, I have been diagnosed by my VA mental health providers as having "recurrent major depression", "depressive disorder", "major depression, single episode", "insomnia", and "chronic insomnia", depending on, I suppose, the writer. of each particular note. The question I have is this: all of these diagnoses have been from VA mental health providers, so I would assume that depression and insomnia have been established. IF I apply for benefits, will they still schedule a C&P exam to determine if I have depression/insomnia? Thanks!

Short answer; most probably. I'd count on it. They do that for original MH claims even if you have strong evidence, including VA diagnosis. But that said, I'm not sure that they really have to. A lot
