Frequently Asked Questions
How To Increase Veteran Disability Rating - FAQs
What is Patriot Benefit Consulting?
Patriot Benefit Consulting is a network of licensed medical providers. Providers within the group share a common goal, which is to help Veterans obtain the benefits they deserve.
Can you guarantee I will get an increase?
Patriot Benefit Consulting provides access to a network of licensed medical providers. Providers within the group share a common goal, which is to help Veterans obtain the benefits they deserve. The Veterans Affairs makes the ruling decision on all claims submitted. If your disabilities warrant an increase and your DBQ’s are completed correctly, you have a high probability of success. Patriot Benefit Consulting does not make any promises or guarantees.
Does Patriot Benefit Consulting charge for services?
Patriot Benefit Consulting, LLC offers access to a licensed medical group. We do charge a fee, similar to fees charged by private healthcare providers. However, we do offer veterans a FREE, no-obligation consultation.
Do you offer financing or payment plans?
Yes. Part of our mission is to help as many veterans as possible obtain the benefits that they deserve. Please contact us for details.
Can I use a VSO, the DAV, or other organization to submit my claim?
Yes. Patriot Benefit Consulting can only assist with the completion of the Disability Benefit Questionnaire (DBQ) and medical evaluations. Veterans are required to submit their own claims. This can be done via an organization of your choice, mailing your claim to the VA, or filing electronically on the eBenefits or VA website.
How does Patriot Benefit Consulting differ from a VA appointed doctor?
Patriot Benefit Consulting is not affiliated with the Veterans Administration. The medical group that Patriot Benefit Consulting will provide you access to is comprised of independent licensed medical providers who understand the claims process. VA appointed medical providers are contracted by the Veterans Administration. In most cases, they are overloaded with patients and do not give proper attention to each claim. A large majority of veterans who see VA appointed doctors when filing their claims are unsatisfied with the results. Thus, resulting in years of refiling and/or a lengthy appeal process.
Can I use your services if I have an open appeal or claim?
Yes. Upon completion of the FREE no-obligation consultation we will determine if it is best to wait for the appeal or claim to be closed or not. Please contact further for more information.
Can you help if I am working with an accredited agent, attorney, or lawyer?
Yes. We work with many accredited agents, attorneys, and lawyers. All Disability Benefit Questionnaires (DBQs) must be completed and signed by a licensed medical provider. Accredited agents, attorneys, and lawyers cannot give medical advice or sign DBQs.
How does Patriot Benefit Consulting differ from my primary care physician?
Our licensed medical providers know the VA disability claims process and understand how to complete Disability Benefits Questionnaires (DBQs). Most primary care physicians do not have the knowledge to complete a DBQ correctly.
What if my Intent to File date is expiring soon or I have an upcoming deadline to submit documentation?
We offer an expedited process for those who have an impending deadline they need to meet; contact us ASAP to see if we can help. *Please note, it is not guaranteed that we will be able to meet your deadline, this will depend on certain factors of your claim.
