So my physical therapist told me September 7th he's recommending to my care team for a MEB due to my leg not recovering in a timely manner post surgery.
My question being will my PCM call me in before paperwork is submitted? Or? Basically how does the very beginning work?
I ask because I would like to add migraines and MH issues to the referred conditions. It's my understanding that will make my process easier down the road and there's no set number you can't have on there. Making the 30%+ DOD much easier to achieve.
Also what other points in the process is it easier or I suppose acceptable to have a condition added to the MEB referral for fit/unfit.
I ask this because I've seen that once it goes to the PEB they typically only find unfit the referred condition. Which makes it an uphill battle with appeals and asking for a FPEB.
I also ask because my PCM is well terrible. Never remembers to put in prescriptions, goes on leave without extending profiles (even after multiple clinic visits asking for it), just forgets to put profiles in, refuses to give physical therapist recommended P3 because she "doesn't give those to anyone below E7" went to patient advocate but from my understanding even though I can see someone else she will remain for administrative purposes my PCM and I'm assuming will do the refer to IDES/MEB and do the NARSUM.
