Podcasts about veterans benefits

In this video, Leah B from Prestige Veteran Medical Consulting—an Army veteran and former compensation and pension examiner—explains everything veterans need to know about cataracts and VA disability benefits. She breaks down what cataracts are, how they may be caused or worsened by military service (such as through trauma, radiation, or steroid use), and the two paths to service connection: primary and secondary. Leah also details how the VA rates cataracts under diagnostic code 6027, the role of pre- and post-operative evaluations, and what documentation veterans should gather to support their claim—including medical records, lay statements, and physician opinions. She emphasizes the importance of CMP exams and encourages veterans to seek help from accredited professionals when filing or appealing claims. 

Leah breaks down everything veterans need to know about Parkinson's disease and VA disability, with a clear focus on ratings, connection, and benefits. She explains how Parkinson's disease can be service-connected through direct, presumptive, or secondary pathways—especially for those exposed to Agent Orange, burn pits, or toxic chemicals during military service. Leah covers how the VA rates Parkinson's (starting at 30% but often much higher when all symptoms are considered), what documentation is required to build a strong connection to service, and the wide range of benefits available—from monthly compensation to caregiver support, adaptive housing grants, and priority healthcare. 

Leah teams up with VA attorney Rebecca Deming to break down the often overwhelming process of filing a VA disability claim. Drawing on their extensive experience, they walk viewers through everything from basic eligibility, required documentation, and types of claims, to practical tips for filling out forms and what to expect after filing. The discussion highlights common mistakes, recent changes in VA procedures, and why it's important to ask for help from free accredited sources like VSOs rather than paying unnecessary fees. With straightforward explanations, clear examples, and a focus on demystifying the system, this video is an invaluable guide for veterans who want to confidently start or improve their VA disability claim process.

This DAV podcast episode, hosted by Jonathan Kaupanger with guests Matt Jahn and Steve Wolf, demystifies the crucial Compensation and Pension (C&P) exam for veterans seeking disability benefits. The discussion covers what a C&P exam is, its purpose, how to prepare, common pitfalls like downplaying symptoms, and veterans' rights during the exam. The hosts and guests also address common complaints about C&P exams, such as rushed assessments and unqualified examiners, emphasizing the importance of providing feedback and seeking assistance from organizations like DAV. Ultimately, the episode aims to alleviate veteran anxiety by providing comprehensive information and support for navigating the C&P exam process.

Leah breaks down everything veterans need to know about getting VA disability benefits for COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease). She explains how COPD includes conditions like chronic bronchitis and emphysema, outlines symptoms, and dives into medical literature showing a strong connection between toxic military exposures (like burn pits or Agent Orange) and COPD—even in non-smokers. Leah details the VA rating system, diagnostic codes, necessary medical documentation (like pulmonary function tests), and strategies for building a strong claim. She also clarifies how COPD can be service-connected directly, secondarily, or presumptively, and encourages veterans to seek help from VSOs or accredited representatives if they've been denied.

Leah explains the crucial concept of favorable findings in VA disability claims. These are positive acknowledgments by the VA, such as confirmed diagnoses, in-service injuries, or credible lay statements, that remain on record even if a claim is denied. Leah walks viewers through how to find and interpret these favorable findings in their rating decision letters, why they're valuable in appeals, and how they can guide future claims. With clear examples and practical advice, she empowers veterans to better navigate the often-confusing VA disability process and encourages working with accredited legal professionals to strengthen their case.

Leah and Rebecca Deming from Provet Legal dive deep into the topic of "pyramiding" in VA disability claims. They explain how the VA prevents veterans from receiving multiple ratings for the same symptoms, using real-world examples involving mental health, respiratory conditions, and TBI. The conversation is packed with practical insights on how to avoid rating mistakes, maximize benefits, and when to seek legal and medical support. It's a thorough, relatable guide for veterans who want to better understand the rating process and protect their rights.

Welcome to The Veterans Disability Nexus, where we provide unique insights and expertise on medical evidence related to VA-rated disabilities.Leah Bucholz, a US Army Veteran, Physician Assistant, & former Compensation & Pension Examiner shares her knowledge related to Independent Medical Opinions often referred to as “Nexus Letters” in support of your pursuit of VA Disability every Wednesday at 7 AM. Leah discusses eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) and its potential connection to VA disability claims, particularly for Gulf War veterans. She explains EoE as a chronic immune system disease where eosinophils, a type of white blood cell, accumulate in the esophagus, often due to allergens, causing inflammation and damage. Leah highlights the complexity of linking EoE to Gulf War exposures, emphasizing the role of allergens and immune responses potentially triggered by environmental factors like burn pits. She reviews relevant medical literature and encourages veterans with EoE to explore service connection possibilities, especially if the condition developed during or after service.

She explains that asbestos, once widely used in military settings like Navy ships from the 1940s to the 1980s, poses serious long-term health risks, including mesothelioma, asbestosis, and lung cancer, often manifesting decades after exposure. Leah highlights resources available for veterans, such as environmental health coordinators and VA.gov help documents, to aid in identifying exposure risks and filing disability claims. She emphasizes the importance of medical documentation, including service records and physician statements, to establish a connection between asbestos exposure during military service and related health conditions.

The benefit provides up to $999.51 per year and can be a recurring payment under certain conditions. Leah also shares resources for filing, including VA forms, prosthetic departments, and free assistance from veteran service officers (VSOs). She advises veterans to consult VA resources or their prosthetic department to confirm eligibility and encourages engagement with her content for further support.

If you ever wanted to understand how our government spends your money, this is the episode for you. There is no one better to fully unpack our debt and deficit crisis than Mick Mulvaney, Mick was the director of the office of management and budget for the Trump administration. In this episode, Mick walks us through the spending arms of the government, giving us a comprehensive explanation of mandatory and discretionary spending. Mandatory spending is written into law and does not require annual approvals; Social Security, Medicaid, Medicare, Income Security and Veterans Benefits all fall under mandatory spending. Discretionary spending must be reviewed and approved each fiscal year with defense spending accounting for nearly half of discretionary spending. Homeland security, education, transportation, research, science and space programs, disaster relief and others are all discretionary programs. For 2 years in a row, our government has run a 2 Trillion dollar deficit in its spending habits and Congress has not balanced a budget in over 2 decades. Mick thoroughly walks us through how we got to the near unfathomable 36 Trillion dollar debt, including the 1 trillion we accumulate nearly every 100 days and what we can do about it. Finally, is there a glimmer of hope with the new department of government efficiency headed by Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy?

Leah B explains ionizing radiation and its impact on veterans seeking VA disability benefits. She describes ionizing radiation as a powerful form of energy that can damage cells and DNA, potentially leading to serious health conditions like cancer. Leah highlights the VA's presumptive criteria for disabilities caused by radiation exposure, including specific locations, timeframes, and radiogenic diseases such as leukemia, thyroid cancer, and more. She provides guidance on navigating VA resources, understanding eligibility requirements, and seeking assistance from veteran service officers or legal professionals. The video emphasizes the importance of reviewing available materials and sharing experiences to better support veterans navigating these claims.

Leah is joined by Rebecca Deming, an attorney specializing in veteran disability law, to explain the bilateral factor in VA disability calculations. They discuss how the VA's unique "VA math" system combines rather than adds disability ratings and how the bilateral factor impacts veterans with disabilities in both arms or both legs, increasing their overall rating. Rebecca explains that the bilateral factor provides a small percentage increase in cases involving conditions affecting both sides, which can affect a veteran's compensation rate. The video demonstrates a tool on the ProVet Legal website that veterans can use to calculate their combined rating, including the bilateral factor, helping veterans better understand and manage their ratings.

Leah  discuss the complexities of VA disability calculations, often referred to as "VA math." Rebecca explains how the VA combines individual disability percentages using a unique formula rather than simple addition, ensuring veterans receive an accurate overall disability rating. The video introduces a VA disability calculator on ProVet Legal's website, which veterans can use to simplify this calculation process. They cover key concepts, including the "whole person approach," rounding rules, and the bilateral factor, which can impact a veteran's combined rating if disabilities affect both sides of the body. Rebecca encourages veterans with concerns about their rating accuracy to consult an attorney for a free case review, and she emphasizes using tools like the calculator to gain better insight into their VA disability benefits.

On this Heard Tell host Andrew Donaldson took a few days before responding to an article in The Economist entitled "American veterans now receive absurdly generous benefits" and subtitled "An enormous rise in disability payments may complicate debt-reduction efforts." Andrew talks through the nomenclature that is being misused, like the differences in "100% disabled", the good, bad, and often very indifferent VA system, the culture and technology changes that must be understood, and some of the things that are driving the increase in veteran benefits and claimants that are not being discussed in social media and news media.All that and more on this episode of Heard Tell.--------------------Heard Tell SubStack Free to subscribe, comes right to your inboxhttps://heardtell.substack.com/Questions, comments, concerns, ideas, or epistles?

Leah explains the link between prostate cancer and Agent Orange exposure for veterans seeking disability benefits. She highlights that the VA presumes certain conditions, including prostate cancer, are service-related if veterans served in specific locations and time frames. Agent Orange exposure has been associated with multiple cancers and other health issues, including bladder cancer, diabetes, and respiratory cancers. Leah outlines various studies supporting this link and clarifies the VA's rating process for prostate cancer, starting with a 100% rating post-diagnosis, with periodic re-evaluation for residual effects. 

In this video, Leah B., a U.S. Army veteran and physician assistant, discusses traumatic brain injuries (TBI) and their impact on veterans' disability claims, focusing on residual effects like headaches. She explains the causes of TBIs, including blunt and penetrating injuries, and the various symptoms that can arise, such as headaches, dizziness, memory issues, and emotional challenges. Leah shares her personal TBI experience and emphasizes the importance of seeking medical care, as TBIs can lead to long-term complications. She also highlights resources available through the VA and encourages veterans to consult accredited professionals when filing or appealing disability claims related to TBI.

Welcome to The Veterans Disability Nexus, where we provide unique insights and expertise on medical evidence related to VA-rated disabilities.Leah Bucholz, a US Army Veteran, Physician Assistant, & former Compensation & Pension Examiner shares her knowledge related to Independent Medical Opinions often referred to as “Nexus Letters” in support of your pursuit of VA Disability every Wednesday at 7 AM.In the video, Leah and Rebecca Deming delve into the specifics of Dependency Indemnity Compensation (DIC) for the survivors of veterans who either died in the line of duty or from service-related injuries. Rebecca, a VA attorney, clarifies that DIC provides monthly financial support primarily to spouses, children, and parents under certain conditions, such as marriage duration and financial need based on poverty thresholds. They discuss the complexities of proving a service-connected cause of death, especially when death certificates list vague causes like "natural causes" or "pneumonia." They emphasize the necessity of linking the cause of death to service-related conditions and possibly amending death certificates to reflect accurate causes, enhancing the survivors' eligibility for DIC benefits.

What drives someone to write a book that is both hard to create and has a deep impact? For Dr. Paul R. Lawrence, former Under Secretary for Benefits and author of Veterans Benefits for You: Get What You Deserve, it was a blend of personal experience and a dedication to help veterans understand and claim their benefits. Lawrence's career in public administration gave him first hand insight into veterans' needs. From managing government responsibilities to engaging directly with veterans, he saw the gap between the benefits available and the information veterans had access to. This realization fueled his decision to write a book that's accessible, concise, and targeted to help 90% of veterans navigate their benefits with ease. Creating a straightforward guide for veterans wasn't simple. Lawrence focused on breaking down complex government processes into easy-to-understand language, with actionable steps veterans could take immediately. By simplifying the typical benefit journey for most veterans, he created a tool that addressed the most common needs without overloading readers with unnecessary details. This clarity made his book not just popular but also essential for the very people he aimed to serve. Lawrence's time in office revealed another key insight: veterans want fast, actionable answers. During his tenure, he regularly met with veterans, both in person and through massive virtual town halls reaching up to 5.7 million individuals nationwide. By actively listening to veterans' questions and frustrations, he fine-tuned his approach, ensuring his message resonated at both individual and large-scale levels. This commitment to direct communication shaped his book's impact and expanded his reach far beyond traditional avenues. The success of his book has inspired Lawrence to think bigger. He's now exploring veteran employment, seeing a critical need for more research and resources in this area. With the increasing numbers of veterans out of the labor force, Lawrence wants to understand and address this trend. He's considering a follow-up that could dive deeper into solutions for veteran employment challenges—a topic he believes might resonate even more widely. Three Key Takeaways: • Simplifying Complexity: Lawrence's book translates complex government processes into accessible, action-oriented information that 90% of veterans can use. His goal was to cut through bureaucratic jargon, making benefits understandable and actionable for veterans. • Listening to Needs: Through direct interactions, both in person and virtually, Lawrence learned that veterans prioritize quick, clear answers. His approach to outreach—whether at VFW halls or in large-scale virtual town halls—helped him fine-tune his messaging and address veterans' most pressing questions. • Expanding Impact: Beyond benefits, Lawrence is shifting his focus toward veteran employment, recognizing a gap in support. By researching why many veterans are leaving the labor force, he aims to create resources and solutions for this underserved area.

Welcome to The Veterans Disability Nexus, where we provide unique insights and expertise on medical evidence related to VA-rated disabilities.Leah Bucholz, a US Army Veteran, Physician Assistant, & former Compensation & Pension Examiner shares her knowledge related to Independent Medical Opinions often referred to as “Nexus Letters” in support of your pursuit of VA Disability every Wednesday at 7 AM. In this episode, Leah discusses osteoporosis and its potential connection to Veterans Affairs (VA) disability benefits. She explains that osteoporosis, which weakens bones and increases fracture risk, can be linked to military service either directly or as a secondary condition caused by another service-connected disability. Leah highlights the risk factors and symptoms of osteoporosis and mentions that certain medications, such as proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), can contribute to its development. She also outlines how veterans diagnosed with osteoporosis during or after service may qualify for VA disability ratings, particularly if they experience incapacitating episodes or significant bone damage.

Rebecca shares her journey into VA law and explains that while veterans can file claims on their own or with the help of a Veteran Service Organization (VSO), attorneys can be essential when claims are complex or denied. She emphasizes that VA attorneys must be accredited and do not charge for assisting with initial claims, but typically charge a contingency fee of 20-33% on back pay for successful appeals.
