    VA Regions

    Im hoping someone on here will know if there is a particular rule or absense of a rule covering a particular issue. I live right on the border of two VA regions (VISN's). The respective CBOC's are 5 miles difference distance (37miles vs 32) from my house. The hospitals are about equal. Can I...

    oh... and surprisingly enough, the moron was a person who answers the phone at the Army HRC call center. I know they outsource that job so, Im not entirely surprised.

    CRSC Retro Pay

    Thank you very much!! I couldnt figure out why the VA would have ANYTHING to do with CRSC retro. The only connection I could come up with is that DFAS would ask the VA what my percentages were at a period in time. But, it wouldnt make ANY sense for the VA to pay me retro that is owed by DFAS...

    CRSC Retro Pay

    Hey Folks! 2 Questions about CRSC retro pay: 1. Who actually pays us the CRSC retro pay? Does DFAS pay it or the VA? I've been told by people who may not necessarily know anything, that its the VA who pays the retro to us. 2. If logic prevails and DFAS is the agency which makes the payment...

    TDRL PTSD Review

    While on TDRL, my primary concern was that I would be forgotten and then lose my benefits when someone realized I had been forgotten and claimed I was unreachable in the interest of covering themselves. I had sent multiple emails and made multiple phone calls (10 plus) to that company in...

    TDRL PTSD Review

    The Army coordinated a re-evaluation with a contracted civilian provider. It had nothing to do with my tricare or the VA. I truly was a random psychologist in a sketchy part of town with no markings on the building. They put me on PDRL, however.

    United Healthcare Military Nurse

    Howdy Folks, My wife spent roughly a month last winter in a coma and tricare paid the hospital nearly $170,000.00. Perhaps a little more. Anyway... Tricare has a nurse calling now. The nurse is a tricare employee, not with any physicians office. She calls and asks questions n such. She...

    CRSC

    Does anyone here have a pdf version of the DD 2860? DTIS keeps telling me I need a newer version of Adobe. When I try to install the suggested adobe version, the computer informs me I already have it installed. Does someone have a copy of the 2011 DD 2860 they could shoot me?

    CRSC

    ok, I learned today how to request my prior award notification letters from the VA. The CRSC application states the Army needs ALL prior VA award letters. Do they really? Will they deny the claim if I only turn in the pertinent one? Anyone have experience with this?

    Does that mean I should not submit those conditions?

    Conditions that no longer affect you

    To have something service connected by the VA, does it still have to bother you? I was looking thru my Army Med Records and founds things like "Ankle sprain", "shin splints" "Tennis Elbow", "Double Vision", "Bronchitis", "Pneumonia", "Hypertension", "Sinusitis", etc... Im wondering... Most of...
