Question:
My wife and I applied for caregiver for me since I was diagnosed 100% PTSD, 50% sleep apnea, 10% hypertension, but the VA denied our request. They said I am not eligible for care from facility or from other person. My wife had to retire to assist me with my daily needs. Please help!
Jim's Reply:
The decision to deny caregiver benefits is made within the medical facility. Your must appeal to the director of the facility. You'll have to follow the process to the letter to have any hope of prevailing. You may well benefit by having an IMO done. Find out how to get one here.
This is all explained in detail here https://www.va.gov/vhapublications/ViewPublication.asp...
Good luck!
