BVA–SECOND REMAND

BVA–HBV DUE TO COMBAT BLOOD EXPOSURE

I love to read these. VA, in its haste to deny the Vet, sometimes forgets to read it’s own rules and regulations. They publish untold volumes of risk factor questionnaires but when it comes time to apply those assumptions, the VA examiner … Continue reading
