Episode 1: VA Errors in the Appeals Modernization Act (AMA)
On this episode of the Veterans Legal Lowdown, we start our miniseries on the Appeals Modernization Act (AMA). A year after the AMA was officially signed into law, host Robert Chisholm and guest Brad Hennings talk about some of the challenges VA is experiencing with the implementation of the new appeals system and what they mean for veterans and their disability claims. Topics include inconsistent identification of favorable findings in VA decisions; incorrect rejection of supplemental claim forms; issues with certification of Legacy appeals to the Board; Duty to Assist errors at the Board; and more.
