I have heard a rumor that the VA is reviewing something like 77,000 records to see if each PTSD Victim has sufficiently proven his case. If this is the case, I have to believe it's to eliminate treatment and pay for a large percentage of us.

I am looking for information. Can anyone help?

VA reviews cases daily, always have always will.
Please read our introduction: Post Traumatic Stress Disorder: intense memories of trauma that won't go away. Whether caused by the horrors of combat or other extreme trauma it lurks quietly in the background of ones day to day life. Some become so distressed by memories of the trauma that they begin to live their lives trying to avoid any reminders of what happened to them. This forum has a deliberately limited number of special purpose topic threads. The main PTSD Discussion thread is Open Topic Discussion. Please read the additional forum rules before posting and please post to existing threads.

The Senate VA committee recently passed the Veterans' Benefits Improvement Act of 2005, which included an amendment to require the VA to standardize the assessment of 100% P&T PTSD about 77,000 claims approved after 1997.
