DP Unfiltered: Candid Veteran Conversations DP

Have you been denied recently? If so, then tune in, and let's talk about it!In this video, I discuss the failures of the Veterans Benefits Administration (VBA) in accurately processing and approving medical opinion requests for veteran disability claims. I refer to a report by the OIG from September 2022 that highlights several issues, including inadequate language used by medical examiners, processors not identifying relevant medical evidence, and unnecessary opinions being requested. These issues have led to delays in processing claims, potentially incorrect claim decisions, and the need for additional resources to correct errors. I emphasize the importance of veterans seeking legal and other forms of support to challenge wrongful claim denials.

The Supreme Court on Monday unanimously rejected arguments by a disabled veteran that he and other individuals who missed filing deadlines for disability benefits should still be eligible for retroactive payouts if they could show compelling reasons for the late submissions. #veterans #supremecourt #benefits
