Hi DeWayne! I’ve been watching your videos and going through this process now. I won’t be attending my C&P (which I recently received via email), due to having an actionable and sufficient DBQ (3 for increase). I’ve also sent in a VA Fm 21-4138 and stated I want them to use my sufficient DBQs to rate my claim. I will give you an update once this is complete. Thanks for the education you’ve armed me with to fight a good fight!

Update: I am 100 P&T as of my original ITF!! This is how my claim went; ITF: 30Jan2023 Private DBQs completed Jun2023 Filed increase claim w/ DBQs 31Aug -no personal statement, just sufficient and actionable DBQs Received email by VES for C&P exam Dec2023, but I sent in a 21-4138 stating I was not attending any further exams due to my sufficient DBQs. As soon as I canceled my exams with VES (which were accurate for what I claimed), I asked the VES representative to annotate exactly why I was refusing my C&P. I then conducted a follow up by calling the 1800 number and spoke to them. I explained what I told VES about canceling my exam, and she also annotated that in my record on why I was refusing my C&P exam. That was on 28Nov. 06Dec - woke up this morning and saw my new rating, notification letter, and my rating letter. DeWayne, despite not using your company’s services, your knowledge from these TH-cam videos alone definitely helped me understand the process and I applied it all. I spent countless hours over the past 3 years finding information via 38 cfr and M21 manual reference and you led me on a path. I had a plan, and even had a backup (HLR) if it didn’t go the way it should with what I submitted. I cannot thank you enough! Mahalo Nui Loa, You are doing some great things for our veterans.

Dewayne you have provided me with the greatest information on navigating and learning how to file my own VA disability claims successfully through watching your VA disability claims process I have went from 0% July 2021 to 90% May 2023, you have provided me with the most important and valuable educational experience that I don't know how much you more of your time and support that we all do appreciate you so much more than you will ever know, thanks sincerely Mr Dewayne Kimble. 😂❤😊
Wow, that is awesome. We are pleased you found the videos educational and help with winning your claim. It is truly being educated that can really help with winning your claim. Feel free to leave a Google review on what you think about the channel: g.page/r/CSzYaeioT5vxEB0/review
if an ace exam was performed for the cause of death and did not include any assessment of the secondary conditions. The examiner only assessed if the in-service injury caused death, rather than determining if the in-service condition led to the secondary conditions that led to death. Can an IMO sufficiently complete with opinions on secondary service-connected condition and opinion on the cause of death win the claim with medical evidence and the in-service event?

Is there ever a case where a veteran submits an actionable DBQ from a private physician and is still required to attend a VA exam in person? I.e., can they deny you for not going to an exam if you already submitted a valid DBQ?
Great material!! Wish I have seen your videos earlier.... really would of help on my journey, with this VA process. Keep up the excellent educational experience 👏
I'm so thankful for your videos!!! I've learned so much by watching, and I just submitted my claims for an increase, SC, and secondary. I submitted my claims (19 total) on June 14, 2022 and got my first phone call on June 16, 2022 from QTC (2 days later). I was surprised at how fast my first exam was scheduled...especially because I'm in the Waco, TX region and I know they have a heavy backlog. I remember watching this video beforehand so I specifically asked which exams will I be scheduled to conduct. The QTC rep sent me a link to the QTC portal which had my examiners information and each DBQ for the exams which will be conducted. Just praying for that increase from 60% to 100%!

Hi Dwayne i just recently back end of April filed a va disability claim for lower back pain, Tinnitus, and hearing loss. About 1 week after filing i got scheduled and went to the hearing test. And regarding my back issues, i have a xray on file and have been seeing a va chiropractor at the va hospital as well. I was told by a person in the call center that a c@p exam was not needed for my back due to enough medical evidence in my file. Is that a good or a bad thing? And how would they know how to rate me with no c@p exam?
I have a video on "they said", there are other factors at play here. Where does it fall under the five ways of service connection.

@DewayneKimble can you link the video? And I was looking at my claim status on the my healthy vet website and saw they submitted 4 dbq on my behalf. 2 weeks ago I am going to submit a FOIA request tomorrow at my doctor appointment. But again it makes sense because all the evidence to support my claim is in my doctor notes and my xrays and my chiropractor notes all va doctors I literally would basically say the same thing that's in the notes. So the lady at the call center did say that when they have enough medical evidence that it's not a bad thing if no c@p is required. Because my back condition is on the website as a approved disability and the xray proves it. So why would a exam be needed right?
Why would you not have a DBQ, how is the rater suppose to know what percentage to grant you. Upcoming Webinar "Get Educated On The VA Compensation Claim Process Webinar" (COUPON CODE: WIN10). August 13th - 14th 6-8PM EST: va.kmd89.com/win-your-va-claim Tired of getting denied and ready to WIN your VA compensation claim.
Can you deny a C&P exam during the BDD process as well if a Primary care physician, clinical psychologist, or any licensed professional who has provided a diagnosis in your service treatment records fills out a DBQ on your behalf?
I've never heard of anyone doing that. If you decide to do that, make sure the DBQ is sufficient for VA purposes. Because it was completed by a MD, doesn't mean it's sufficient for VA purposes.
Hello. Great info here. Appreciate you providing your first hand experience and expertise! Awesome support! I am 86 days into my supplemental claim for depression. I’ve been under treatment through the VHA for a year now and submitted a DBQ done by my private doctor. Called the VA for an update as the VA website said my file was being reviewed by a rater. The VA person said they had completed gathering info (including from VHA) and my file was presently in the decision phase. I asked if a c&p would be scheduled. She said likely not because they had the DBQ and my VA treatment record. My questions are: Does her statement jibe with your experience? Also, my private doctor wrote the nexus statement in the DBQ remarks section instead of a separate letter. Have you ever seen that before and, if so, was it good to make the DBQ actionable and sufficient. Everything else is good to go.
Your welcome. No, the person on the other end is not a rater. I have several videos on what some VA employees are doing when vets submit evidence they can use to rate the case. I have a video on nexus statements in the remarks section. I can't say if the DBQ was sufficient without looking at it. I have several videos on my channel on DBQs, you can do a search and watch them. They are not long.

Hey Dwayne...first thank you for these great videos. Interesting how much I learn even after having been service connected for some years. I have visited quite a few doctors, but especially my private doctors. All of them have refused to complete the DBQs. I have press them to at the very least be as descriptive as possible in their process notes during our visits to cover areas of the DBQ. Not completely, but as much as they can. Question: Who can complete a DBQ? MD, DO, Chiropractor, Doctor of Physical Therapy? Thanks
Your welcome and thanks for the feedback and support. Actually I did a video on recognized medical professional by the VA: th-cam.com/video/oQHrIU4qnn4/w-d-xo.html Let me know what you think.
Hello Dwayne! I was doing some research and came across your channel. I have started the claims process for the first time ever and am being required to complete a telehealth C&P exam. I also have a DBQ appt next month with the VA for 3 out of 9 of the service connected illnesses that I've claimed. Kindly, advise of any tips that can assist me throughout this process. The C&P telehealth exam is on Tuesday, not sure why I have to have both. P.S. I don't have video option available at this time, do you know if that would count against me? I didn't think to mention that while scheduling the exam. Thank you!
Morning, We offer educational services to educate the veteran on the VA claims process. Do you know the diagnostic code criteria for each condition you claimed and do you know which exams you have. We offer an private Q & A that educates you on the criteria for the conditions you claimed. www.kmd89.com/services. We can get you in today 4-17
@Dewayne Kimble Thank you for all you do. When submitting Nexus statement, is to better to state it as a Nexus Letter in the pdf file or have it saved as IMO(Independent Medical Opinion)
Your welcome and it's my passion. what about the DBQ. The is no general format, I did bullet comments for mine: name, ssn, diagnosis, evidence reviewed, medical opinion, rational etc...
Hey Dwayne, I claimed about 12 service connection disabilities all 12 have gotten a DBQ with medical opinions and letters submitted shortly after. Along with that they performed two C&P exams for mental and back . Is it normal to doctors fill out DBQ’s filled out on your behalf none of which you’ve never attended? Only the C&P exams I attended. Still awaiting a decesion.
That is called an ACE exam and I have a video on my channel on this topic. Also, don't forget to sign up for my next upcoming live webinar "How To Win Your VA Claim".

Hey Dewayne, great content. Keep doing big things. Question, as you were a previous rater, do raters like to see claim evidence and documents combined into one pdf with a cover letter or as separate documents with titles when uploading the evidence? I want to upload my evidence and make it easier for my rater with my evidence.
There are hundreds of RVSR's. How each looks at the information is submitted or uploaded is a guess. They have no control on how information is uploaded.
My question is I submitted 2 dbq for secondary conditions. I just got a letter that I’m scheduled for a paperwork only c&p exam with ves . I don’t have to go. It is with a nurse practitioner in another state. What is that.
A nurse practitioner can do an exam. It would be up to you if you want to go or not. Just know the tricks that some VA employees play if you go or not go so you can head it off: www.kmd89.com/services
My VSO has a high work load and doesn't communicate well with me. I'm 50% rated for PTSD. We recently appealed and included conditions which my first VSO didn't even include. Since the appeal, I've been to the C&P, I've had a sleep study which determined I have Sleep Apnea. I have an upcoming hearing test for Tinnitus as well as an exam for other conditions. My concern is that I can't trust the VSO to do due diligence. I'm afraid something will get missed like on my first claim. Are there any forms I should be filling out and uploading, such as the form where I state how the Sleep Apnea affects my daily living. I don't want this to turn into a cluster as the process is already complicated enough. Also, how do I get a copy of my C&P exam results? My VSO was supposed to contact me when it came through but it seems like it's been long enough now. 🥴
Hi dewayne! Your videos are so helpful! Question… my husband had a C&P Exam for hearing on January 7, 2021. We have heard nothing nor received a copy of that exam. Today is July18… should he have heard something by now? Is 7 mo after. a C & P Exam normal not to hear one word about a claim that was submitted in sept 2020? My husband is 82 and is near deaf for decades. He never knew he could even apply for any kind of help until some family encouraged him to apply. Thank you

You have to submit a FOIA request to the VA.
When in the claim process do you get a request for your banking information?
see my previous response to this question you had.
What time frame is considered "current" for diagnosis? Is it anything within the last year?
Under the three elements, there is no time frame given.
Can you deny a C&P exam during the BDD process as well if a Primary care physician, clinical psychologist, or any licensed professional who has provided a diagnosis in your service treatment records fills out a DBQ on your behalf?
I've never heard of anyone doing that. If you decide to do that, make sure the DBQ is sufficient for VA purposes. Because it was completed by a MD, doesn't mean it's sufficient for VA purposes.

Hello Dwayne! I was doing some research and came across your channel. I have started the claims process for the first time ever and am being required to complete a
telehealth C&P exam. I also have a DBQ appt next month with the VA for 3 out of 9 of the service connected illnesses that I've claimed. Kindly, advise of any tips that can assist me throughout this process. The C&P telehealth exam is on Tuesday, not sure why I have to have both. P.S. I don't have video option available at this time, do you know if that would count against me? I didn't think to mention that while scheduling the exam. Thank you!

@Dewayne Kimble Thank you for all you do. When submitting Nexus statement, is to better to state it as a Nexus Letter in the pdf file or have it saved as IMO(Independent
Medical Opinion)
Your welcome and it's my passion. what about the DBQ. The is no general format, I did bullet comments for mine: name, ssn, diagnosis, evidence reviewed, medical opinion, rational etc...
Hey Dwayne, I claimed about 12 service connection disabilities all 12 have gotten a DBQ with medical opinions and letters submitted shortly after. Along with that they performed two C&P exams for mental and back . Is it normal to doctors fill out DBQ’s filled out on your behalf none of which you’ve never attended? Only the C&P exams I attended. Still awaiting a decesion.
That is called an ACE exam and I have a video on my channel on this topic. Also, don't forget to sign up for my next upcoming live webinar "How To Win Your VA Claim".

Hey Dewayne, great content. Keep doing big things. Question, as you were a previous rater, do raters like to see claim evidence and documents combined into one pdf with a cover letter or as separate documents with titles when uploading the evidence? I want to upload my evidence and make it easier for my rater with my evidence.
There are hundreds of RVSR's. How each looks at the information is submitted or uploaded is a guess. They have no control on how information is uploaded.
My question is I submitted 2 dbq for secondary conditions. I just got a letter that I’m scheduled for a paperwork only c&p exam with ves . I don’t have to go. It is with a nurse practitioner in another state. What is that.
A nurse practitioner can do an exam. It would be up to you if you want to go or not. Just know the tricks that some VA employees play if you go or not go so you can head it off: www.kmd89.com/services
I didn’t here you say go get your C-File this time 😉
You caught me, I will make sure I will the next time.
lol
My VSO has a high work load and doesn't communicate well with me. I'm 50% rated for PTSD. We recently appealed and included conditions which my first VSO didn't even include. Since the appeal, I've been to the C&P, I've had a sleep study which determined I have Sleep Apnea. I have an upcoming hearing test for Tinnitus as well as an exam for other conditions. My concern is that I can't trust the VSO to do due diligence. I'm afraid something will get missed like on my first claim. Are there any forms I should be filling out and uploading, such as the form where I state how the Sleep Apnea affects my daily living. I don't want this to turn into a cluster as the process is already complicated enough. Also, how do I get a copy of my C&P exam results? My VSO was supposed to contact me when it came through but it seems like it's been long enough now. 🥴

Hi dewayne! Your videos are so helpful!
Question… my husband had a C&P Exam for hearing on January 7, 2021. We have heard nothing nor received a copy of that exam. Today is July18… should he have heard something by now? Is 7 mo after. a C & P Exam normal not to hear one word about a claim that was submitted in sept 2020? My husband is 82 and is near deaf for decades. He never knew he could even apply for any kind of help until some family encouraged him to apply.
Thank you
