-
While you have the right to choose any licensed medical provider that you prefer, our licensed medical providers know the VA disability claims process and understand how to complete Disability Benefits Questionnaires. Most primary care physicians do not have the knowledge to complete a DBQ correctly.
-
Boots on the Ground is not affiliated with the Veterans Administration. We work with a network 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 the proper attention to each veteran and their claim. A large majority of veterans who see VA appointed doctors when filing their claim are unsatisfied with the results, thus resulting in years of refiling and/or a lengthy appeal process.
-
Yes, we work with many accredited agents and attorneys. All Disability Benefit Questionnaires must be completed and signed by a licensed medical provider. Accredited agents and attorneys cannot give medical advice or sign DBQ’s.
