My brother, there is nothing stupid about your KZbin videos. You give us more information than VSO's. Many of us are grateful!, thank you for all you do!

[@airmix08]

He talks about the same thing 50 different ways trying to fear monger folks into clicking on his titles with misleading click bait titles. Same with InfoTap. Don’t get me wrong, some of his stuff is informative, but other times, he’s talking about the same EXACT thing he spoke about just moments ago, just in a different way with the same end results for clicks and likes. It’s deceptive on his part

Just got a 100 percent yesterday. I can’t say I fought hard only because I used all the info I got from channels like yours. Now becomes the battle to keep the service connection through maintaining evidence. Appreciate all the info you guys put out.

You and your partner info tap helped me tremendously. I will be eternally grateful. I got more information from you than any VSO who were rude and didn’t dig into my situation as I obviously learned to do with your help. I HAD EVERYTHING I NEEDED. I JUST DID NOT KNOW HOW TO PRESENT IT TO HELP THE VA RATE ME PROPERLY BUT WITH YOUR HELP I WAS ABLE TO DO IT. NOW I HAVE THE PEACE OF MIND THAT MY CHILDREN AND FAMILY WILL GET THE BENEFITS AFTER I’M GONE. Don’t let the haters discourage you please keep doing what you’re doing. Thank you.

No stupid vids bro, educational and straight forward answers and always up-to-date, thanks 🙏🏾💪🏾💪🏾

[@blessedveteran]

100% of my care is through the VHA. I too do not like to take medicine that makes me a zombie or gives me other issues. A few years ago I asked to change my PCP to a more holistic provider and currently take a lot of vitamins and utilize the programs that they have for chronic pain. My VHA hospital has a lot of holistic options available and I am thankful for that.

[@mikebrown6854]

Really…I just get prescribed more and more pills. I’m worried about my kidney and liver side effects. I have been waiting for new primary and will ask for holistic sources. The last primary would not talk about it as if “natural” is a forbidden word.

[@stick__shooter]

I had very bad reactions to Sumatriptan. Intense jaw pain and painful to swallow for a couple hours after taking it. The neurologist said I'm probably allergic and gave me something else to try. I'm definitely with you on not wanting to take meds that don't help or cause side effects that are worse than my symptoms.

"suck on that for a second" haha. Love the channel, enjoy the content, but more importantly, I appreciate you helping the veteran community. Thanks!

[@tomfinch301]

I use VA Healthcare for all my healthcare needs as I’m self employed and it for way too $$ like $1500+ monthly to Buy my own health Ins. So Last summer I broke my ankle & it required surfery ie: plate & 6 screws. I’m just getting back to near normal use of ankle but surgeon was great VA had everything I needed waiting for me either at my home(shower chair, knee scooter) or they provided me with them crutches , walking boot etc all at no cost as I’m @ 80% disabled So I give VA Healthcarw a thumbs up

[@tomfinch301]

I meant to add that I watch your show often. I get a lot of good tips and you’ve passed on so much knowledge I appreciate you Clay. Thanks!

[@JulioJRoman]

I'm 100% P&T since June 20, 2023, and I used to use both, VA and Private insurance healthcare. However, I became unemployed in September 2024, and I've been using VA healthcare only. Unfortunately, I have to go to the Washington VA Medical Center which is 35 to 40 miles depending on who you ask from my residence in Dumfries, Virginia and as you know, it can be a 1.5 to 3 hours trek 1 way depending on date, time and traffic. I hate to go to the Washington VA Medical Center because of that and recently I requested to move my primary care to Ft. Belvoir because getting access to community care is almost impossible. If you have any tricks that you can pass to me, they're greatly appreciated. Thank you for the great work you and your partner at Veterans Info Tap do. I'm infinitely grateful for the information you both provide. It's been a real blessing for me and my family so thank you and God bless you and your family.

I use a combination VA and private. I’m a 63 y.o. Female with 32 years in service. I ran into problems with the VA’s treatment - actually the absence of treatment - for menopause care including hormone treatment, bone density scans and some cancer screens. I also have a hard time with quality dental care. The dentists are great but overwhelmed. I’m 100% T&P but and getting pretty anxious about the future of the disability,it’s payments I’m receiving under the new admin and Project 2025. I’ll be watching you regularly. Thank you for what you do!

Hi Clay, while I wasn't at the VA to send you my thanks I can do it here. I appreciate the knowledge you are sharing with the Veteran Community. I've learned a lot. In terms of my Healthcare I am using VA Healthcare exclusively and have been for the past 2 years. So far it has been great and the providers and admins understand the Veteran community and take pride it what they do. I have been trying to educate others based on my experience.

I use private health care because the last time I wrnt to Birmingham, AL VA hospital I was there forever and the docs were rude. Acted like I was an inconvenience.

Had two unauthorized medical disclosures at VA Amarillo-one from Patient Advocate. They are read into HIPAA every year so check your Google reviews. Also got tampered with medication from DCOMP Dallas so check your medication vials. Wrote a letter to POTUS hopefully they can institute some reforms at the VA. Glad to hear that some are having good experiences but check your 6 always at the VA

Va health care for me since 2010. I have a great primary care doctor. I also do community care when the VA can’t get me an appointment in 30 days. The only departments a don’t use is the emergency room it’s terrible and urology they total messed me up gave me a horrible infection and then gave me the wrong medication. Now I have ED because of it. Thanks Clay for all your help I couldn’t be were I’m at without your knowledge. You make things so easy to understand.

[@steelers8706]

Made it to the end Clay. Also, I’m contemplating changing to private because the VA after 10+ years are still denying me PTSD even though I am being seen by a PTSD specialist and it is clearly service connected by them and noted…. I’m being seen and am doing ok with treatment but when it comes to submitting a claim, they basically turn tail for a lack of better term. It’s frustrating but still trying…

Brother, you bringing religion into this important topic - God will give you many peaceful years, Amen !

Hey buddy, you do a great job!

[@gunny2044]

Great video as always, Clay. I retired for the Corps after 20 year of service in 2001, with 60% SC. Over the succeeding 23 years those SC issues; back, knees (patellectomy), leg neuropathy, etc, have all worsened. I do not use VA Healthcare, but rather my Tricare, because it's more convenient and accessible. My VSO submitted an ITF in June 24. I attended three C&P exams over a two week period and quickly received a rating increase to 90%. I was also SC for stomach cancer under the PACT Act, under the June 2024 ITF, and I was rated at 100% for the cancer, which I am still being treatment for. Unbeknownst to me, I am now rated 100% P&T, which I discovered using the VA app on my iPhone as you demonstrated. On the VA Healthcare website, and the iPhone app, I can see all the SC ratings to include 100% for the cancer, but I have never received a decision letter for the SC cancer specifically, nor can I find the letter on the website nor app. Should I contact the VA about the decision letter, or is having it show on the website an app good enough? Semper Fidelis!

I subscribed a while back... you are usually 1st on my viewing list. The way you present info is straight forward and time efficient. Most if the other guys that do this also provide great info and each have there own way of presenting. I like them all but don't watch them as much as you. I'm using CC for my bone marrow transplant and related appts. Why?... Duke Med is a top and center does many more of these than the VA. So, I wanted my best shot. VA for everything else. They are good for treatment of many things. I want to support/use them to keep them around, as my plan A. I maintain my Medicare B (66yo) and private doctor...you need a plan B. VA even suggests you should do so as you never know what congress will do with VA funding.

[@Quid100]

Great Vid! Here's my story: I am 55. I was medically retired in 2008 and was rated 80% from VA. I applied for an increase to rating in 2014 and was increased to 100% P&T in 2015. I live in the Philippines and use a combination of the VA clinic here (only remote as I do not live in Manila) and private healthcare with Tricare Select Overseas. The VA a year or so back stopped distributing class A drugs (like benzo/opiod) so I had to start buying them on the economy and reimbursed through Tricare. Have had little to complain about with VA, other than reduction in services, which is out of their control here. And, Tricare works well but takes time. Hope this info helps any vets here in Ph or considering moving here.

[@raybdavisjr]

The VBA and local VHA immediately share info, I know this because I went to the emergency room and spent the night there in 2021, later I checked my VA records and and VBA had started an intent to file claim: Which I had nothing to do with. I got paranoid and thought the VA was trying to get me in for an exam because at this point I was about 18 months from my 20 years protection. Whatever your VHA put down and the VBA will automatically know and use.

Hi Clay, I use VA health care, we have a local clinic that does a great job for vets in my area. With all the changes taking place in the new administration, I'm a bit worried about the forthcoming decision on my claim for mental health. I'm expecting the decision sometime soon after March 2025. Thanks.

[@PlatyCast]

Im maxed out on my migraines at 50%. They’re terrible however through VA healthcare I seem to of had a breakthrough with medication. It seems to really be working and while I still have them they’re spaced further apart. I’d been really curious if by using medication as a prevention and it was affective would it affect my rating. Per usual good video.

[@CBR0842]

I get both private and Va healthcare both primary and mental health.

[@dennisb3180]

I have been using VA health care since 1992 and they have done some of the dumbest stuff possible. Here is just one example. They have replaced my wheel chair last August, but they have yet to replace the wheel chair lift for my pickup. They provided me a heavier wheel chair that my current lift can not put in my pickup and I have no lift to put it in my pick up. That right I have no way to use the chair they provided me to use. Even though I contact them weekly about it, they never call me back about it so I am stuck without being able to use the wheel chair they provided me for my service connected disability. Amazing is it not.

[@alejandrodiaz8080]

Hey CivDiv again thank you so much for the channel with your help I was able to get 90% last year. Question, I asked for my C file because I want to get to 100% since the va denied a couple of claims. However, under this administration I’m not sure if that would be the best since now the va is going thru multiple changes and also as you have explained on your other videos if they open the whole claim and although I can be approve for new symptoms they can also reduce others!?

[@scrapguy6816]

Of course, put claims in for anything you feel is service connected. This administration will help you not hurt your chances of getting approved.

[@scottmollette9483]

I use private health care because the VA is very far away and my disabilities do not allow for 7-8 hour trips. Like you, I hate medications. However, when meds help, it would be foolish not to take them. A few months ago I was diagnosed with peripheral heart disease. I was already 100% P&T, so I pay put-of-pocket whenever I need to see a physician, though the FMP is available.

I put my intent to file back in December and I claimed sleep apnea, I conducted a sleep test and they did diagnose me with sleep apnea, however my claim for everything is still in the process and have not been issued a rating on anything yet. Will I be grandfathered in since I already put an intent to file in or could they still use the new rating schedule on me since I haven’t been issued a rating yet?

[@Jayscuba]

I got 100% P&T last year and initially filed 5yrs ago for those conditions. Would it be ok to file for an SMC if it is impacting me and the only way I could get coverage for it would be to have that SMC service connected, which it is. People keep saying that’s a risk, but I legitimately have an issue that I want improved and the treatment is $20k even at 100% P&T.

[@chrisboston5416]

Hi Clay, I have heard that taking any action regarding your claim can open it up for review. e.g. Submitting paperwork for a back claim could get the rater to review your PTSD rating. However, I have heard that adding a dependent is not a claim action that will result in a VA rater reviewing your decided upon claims. Can you confirm this, and if so tell us what action(s) open you up for review, and which do not? Thank you.

[@DopamineSink]

Adding/removing dependents, applying for VA loan, applying for CHAMPVA, Title 35 etc are not claims actions because they are based on your rating/status only. Applying for something like adaptive housing or vehicle etc. however, IS, as the VBA has to reassess your condition to make sure it qualifies for that grant. Im not sure about VR&E, however, because I've never used it.

[@albijay5722]

[@jammaho4762]

I use VHA and good video

[@godswill2260]

Not if one is deemed total and permanent without foreseeable improvements.

[@brannondyer6828]

Mostly use VA healthcare.. I'm slightly over 50% . Have found out that you get no help from VA but you get treatment.. I have heard many times when asking the doctors questions.. Why do you care since you are over 50% then we have to treat you anyways no matter what going on? I have even been told numerous times by many doctors when asking questions that they can't even write diagnosis down because it would be a conflict of interest.. WTH.. I got where I am with a lot of work and finally got on a CUE (critical and undeniable error) from VA.. I just looking through records still and now found another mistake by the VA which cost a claim. I'm still fighting them. The duty to assist should be redifined.. they are just like here is a prescription so we are treating you and therefore assisting you. I am still not giving up. I hear all this stuff about the VA worried about fraud.. I know it happens but damn I got causes and diagnosis and medical records and doctors statements and just all kinds of strait up proof and still uphill battle.. all I'm saying is the VA does not seem to just hand ratings out like a lot of people think.

How do I know if my condition is static

[@Ikiendangi]

Your paper should say permanent and total, if you haven’t get a re-exam over 2 years its most likely P&T. Call the Va they will tell you if you are or not.

[@joshd6876]

You can call the VA 1800# and press the number for claims and disabilities. Then ask if you have any future examinations. If they say no, no more exams scheduled, then you are static. You may be able to ask if you are static as well. If that does not work you’ll have to request you code sheet from your VBA location or submit a FOIA request on the VA website. (6-12 months) Some locations will print it out for you, some will not. I personally like having my code sheet because it has so much on it that the VA does not share with you. It’s a in-depth breakdown of every claim you have submitted, granted or denied, and the reasoning.

[@whatsyourexcuse927]

Kind of off topic but I was wondering the correct steps to take if I have a current pending claim and was diagnosed with a separate condition that isn't included in that claim. Do I submit a new claim, a supplemental or wait? Also, I read somewhere that Asthma as a presumptive under the PACT Act has to be within 10 years of discharge, is that true? I'm 20 years out and just got that diagnosis. Thanks for any info.

[@ericnelson6687]
