Casey's Story: War Was Half the Battle

user-pic

Former Army Specialist Casey Elder is trapped in a story without a conclusion. It began in 2004, the moment an IED struck her Humvee in Baghdad, slamming her hard enough to dislocate her shoulder and cause permanent joint and nerve damage.

After returning home, Casey began suffering from balance problems, short-term memory loss, and severe migraines. After a series of misdiagnoses, her local VA was finally able to pinpoint the source of her injuries: Casey had a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). She responded by filing a disability claim with the VA in January 2009, assuming that a diagnosis from a VA hospital would qualify her to receive compensation. But that assumption proved to be painfully wrong.

After waiting eight months, Casey was shocked to learn that her claim was rejected. Her only recourse was to appeal the VA's decision, an arduous, drawn-out process. Today, more than a year after she started this journey, Casey still waits for word on whether or not she will receive her hard-earned benefits.

Unfortunately, stories like Casey's could fill a stack of books at your local library. She is just one of the nearly 425,000 members of the nation's least envious club: injured veterans waiting for their disability benefits. And no, members of this club don't have their own jackets or 10% off at Walmart. They are stuck waiting. And waiting.

Why the backlog? Like all Iraq and Afghanistan veterans applying for disability benefits, Casey is essentially using the same paper-based system that Vietnam veterans used more than three decades ago. The current disability process was created before most Iraq and Afghanistan vets were even born. In the last thirty years, we've moved from DOS to Windows 7, from rotary phones to iPhones, from Beta-Max to Blu-Ray--but the VA is still operating with paper clips and printer paper. Now we know who is keeping Dunder Mifflin in business.

As detailed in our newest report, "Red Tape: Veterans Fight New Battles for Care and Benefits," the claims process is a picture of government inefficiency and bureaucracy at its worst.

Veterans wait on average 6 months to hear back from the VA on the status of their claim, with some forced to wait more than a year. The entire claims backlog borders on nearly one million, and because of an emphasis on processing quantity over quality, 17 percent of all claims are inaccurate. Veterans who contest a wrong decision face an appeals process that takes, on average, more than two years. And just last week, we heard from VA Secretary Shinseki that wait time is likely to rise until 2013. You know a situation is out of control when you have to use italics that often in a single paragraph.

But somebody is doing something about it. Next week, dozens of veterans like Casey and Sara Skinner (see the video below) will take this fight to our nation's Capitol as part of IAVA's annual Storm the Hill campaign. They will tell Congress and the White House that the VA must reform its disability system; that they refuse to allow the next generation of warriors to be left behind.

They are there to propose a few key fixes that will do more than just throw people or money at the problem: digitizing records and moving the claims process into the 21st century, holding processors accountable for the accuracy of their work, and removing unnecessary steps in the process. A new, innovative, cost-effective system will make the federal government more efficient, and save taxpayers' money at a critical time.

We need the VA to try a business approach that works for countless companies that you interact with every day. It's called customer service. If Zappos, USAA and Craigslist can do it, so can the VA. But these vets aren't ordering shoes or finding concert tickets, they are trying to get their rightly earned benefits.

And to get this done, we need bold leadership. Overhauling a system that dates back to the Nixon Administration won't happen without a fight, and it won't happen without a united coalition. Veterans of all generations and key leaders from both sides of the aisle will be taking it on, but we need all Americans to help. It doesn't matter who you voted for, how you feel about the war, or what party you are from, you can support our veterans fighting for disability reform.

Wounded warriors returning from battle shouldn't have to fight red tape once they get home. Working together, we can finally close the chapter on the outdated VA disability claims process that has plagued veterans for generations. We can show wounded warriors, like Casey Elder, that "we've got their back." Show Congress that you stand with our veterans now at www.StormTheHill.org. And tell them that our veterans have waited for long enough.

Paul Rieckhoff is the Executive Director and Founder of Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America, and the author of Chasing Ghosts.

Unfortunately you, your Article and Organization may be viewed as a complete 100% Fraud as the USA President Barack Obama Executive Branch of our USA Government, Department of Veterans Affairs is completey closed to all aspects of proper and forthright LAW and Judicial review and seemingly therefore and Representation thereof. Your Foundation Organization and most likely similar to all other Democracy Democratic Advocate Organizations, such as Democracynow, Connect the Dots, GAP Government Accountability Project, NWC National Whistleblower Center, POGO ecetra all refuse to directly to file on behalf of (AMICUS BRIEF OR DIRECTLY) WHISTLEBLOWERS AND/OR VETERANS, PERIOD and WHICH ARE APPARENTLY NOT ALLOWED TO BE FILED IN ANY COURT (DIRECTLY) IN THE USA!!

The only filing as you indicate is in the form of Appellate Review and/or with the FEDCIR, Federal Circuit Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit and from a case that was never filed and never allowed to be filed in an Original proper Court of Law. It appears correct that by proper and forthright application and interpretation of our US Laws and all Laws that an Appeal should be from a free and clear Original US Court filing and as I have previously mentioned is not allowed to be filed, period!!

Also and important is the our US President Barack Obama and seemingly our entire US Executive, Legislative and Judicial Branches of our US Government have ignored, denied and/or sverely retaliated against Whistleblowers (= High Crime and Misdeamonors and holds our US Government Nugatory) and directly opposite of the Presidential Candidate Barack Obama written and verbal promise to support Whistleblowers.

1) What is the Statis of the 8/2008 US Judicary Congressional Hearing 'Presidential Powers and It's Limitations' 'Impeachment Hearings'?!

2) When will the FEDERAL EMPLOYEE WHISTLEBLOWER PROTECTION ENHANCEMENT RESTORATION ACT' of 2000 thru 2010, AND WITH THE EXPECTED CULTURAL CHANCE, 'CHANGE WE CAN BELIEVE IN' be brought to a full floor vote, passage and implementation?!

Please note that as I have hurriedly replied that I reserve the right to apply any corrections and/or modifications that may be necessary and/or expected within this blog comment reply.

Where proper and forthright, good luck and best wishes within your endeavors of trying to bring proper and forthright awareness to these highly important concerns and issues where they may be properly and forthrightly applicable.

If you have any questuons or concerns you may contact me directly and/or I presume on this TPM Article with the blog comment reply format.

IS OSAMA BIN LADEN DEAD?

Why does President Obama talk about killing or capturing Osama bin Laden when speculation is that the terrorist died soon after Tora Bora. Logic dictates that a sick man with a bad kidney needing regular dialysis could not possibly have survived this long in the rugged mountains.

There were reports suggesting that his funeral took place soon after he escaped from US attack on Tora Bora. He has certainly not been seen ever since though there have been a couple of video tapes. The last one showing him a lot younger with a totally black beard. There have also been occasional audio tapes, but both the videos and audios appear highly suspect.

With all the resources at their disposal, should US intelligence agencies not know whether he is dead or alive? And if he is dead then why is "killing or capturing" bogey still being paraded around?

President Obama came to office on a platform of change. Should he not tell the American public what he knows?

And if intelligence agencies do not know whether OBL is dead or alive, then it does not say much for their intelligence gathering. Then what are US troops doing in Afghanistan, when it is not even known whether enemy number one exists or not?

Perhaps it is time to pull all troops out of Afghanistan and let the Afghans decide their own fate.
