Honoring Your Service, Ensuring Your Benefits: Veteran C & P Care

At MHW, we understand the unique needs of veterans when it comes to healthcare. That’s why we’re proud to offer specialized services for Compensation & Pension (C & P) examinations. Our team is dedicated to providing comprehensive evaluations to ensure veterans receive the benefits they rightfully deserve.

What is a C & P Examination?

A Compensation & Pension (C & P) examination is a crucial step in the process of obtaining VA benefits. These exams are conducted to assess the extent of a veteran’s service-connected disabilities and determine their eligibility for compensation and pension benefits. Our experienced medical professionals are trained to perform thorough evaluations, taking into account the specific requirements outlined by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA).

Preparing for Your C&P Exam

Preparing for your Compensation & Pension (C&P) exam is crucial to ensuring a smooth and successful evaluation process. Here are some key steps you can take to be well-prepared:

Gather Relevant Documentation

  • Bring a complete medical history of the conditions to be examined, including all doctors’ reports and tests. Even if you’ve already submitted this information, having it on hand for the exam ensures that the physician has access to all pertinent details.

  • Familiarize yourself with the specific information and tests needed for the VA Disability Rating of each of your conditions.

Be Proactive

  • Take an active role in your C&P exam. While VA physicians have access to Disability Benefits Questionnaires (DBQs) to guide them through the examination, it’s essential to ensure that all necessary information is accurately recorded.

  • Provide clear instructions to the examiner regarding the specific details and tests needed for each condition. This proactive approach can help prevent delays or the need for additional examinations.

Communicate Effectively

  • Keep careful records of your condition, including any symptoms, limitations, and impacts on your daily life. Be prepared to discuss these details with the examiner during the exam.
  • Be upfront and honest about your concerns and day-to-day challenges related to your condition. This includes any difficulties you face at work, home, or in performing basic activities.

Advocate for Yourself

  • If your condition is difficult to measure accurately during the appointment, such as pain or anxiety, be sure to communicate this to the examiner.

  • Explain the frequency and severity of “bad days” or instances where your condition significantly impairs your functioning.

  • Request a copy of the C&P exam results from the VA. This report can be valuable if you need to discuss or dispute a diagnosis or rating decision in the future.
