  2. In August of 2014, the Congressional Budget Office ("CBO") issued a study on the patterns and policy choices when it applies to supplying veterans with their benefits. In general, the study identifies a (unsurprising) increase in veterans who are seeking injury care payments - about $54 billion worth in 2013, or around 70 percent of the Veterans Benefits Administration's ("VBA") overall mandatory budget. In total,16 percent of all veterans in 2013 earned VA impairment benefits. Click here Veterans compensation. These statistics represent a 55 percent rise in veterans earning payments from 2000 to 2013. Because of the economic strain this generates, the CBO study identifies options for reforming the injury care policy. Both alternatives come into either adjusting the VA's procedures for recognizing service-connected disabilities; or revising incentives by increasing reimbursement rates, changing alignment with other government programs, or changing the tax status of payments. The end result is clear: reduce the responsibility on Uncle Sam. Any of these choices are as follow: Choice #1: Institute a time limit on initial submissions. As a veterans advocate who got her start in this area with her father's VA injury lawsuit - over thirty years after his service - I am totally opposed to this. VA medical coverage is an entitlement, not a luxury, because if a soldier has to take ten years to qualify for his insurance (which will result in the VA not wanting to compensate him for ten years), that's his choice.

  3. Choice #2: Require the VA to extend its usage of reexaminations. When it comes to provisional evaluations, these reexaminations are used to guarantee that a veteran's impairment classification truly represents the degree of disability. The CBO reports that these reexaminations are not always planned or conducted as is needed. Choice #3: Change the positive-association criterion for declaring presumptive circumstances. Through presuming that many medical problems are induced by medical service, this eliminates from the veteran the responsibility of determining the link between their combat service and the emergence of a medical disorder. However, the problem is that these presumptions are developed only through a rigorous phase involving medical trials, results, and legislative adjustments that may take years. Doesn't this mean that this is a healthy assumption to make? By forcing veterans to show other criteria to build the assumption that a disability is service-connected, this theoretically produces needless paperwork. Then calculate the extra documentation by the amount of veterans this impacts... Choice #4: Limit person unemployability payments to veteran who are less than the maximum retirement date for social protection. Under this alternative, the VA will no longer allow IU contributions to veterans that were over the Social Security's maximum retirement date. However, the VA and the Social Security Administration (SSA) are two completely separate government agencies that grant benefits depending on different sets of requirements. You may not have to be service-disabled in order to received SSA benefits, although this choice effectively takes out benefits for someone who is service-disabled by way of them being entitled to gain a certain form of payment from the SSA. Again, I repeat - disability pay when you are disabled in action is an entitlement.
