Thank you for this question.
It's important that we put stuff in context. A lot of these injuries and illnesses that are related to service are obvious; for example, someone fell from an obstacle course during training and broke something. They are very obvious. The files, when they transfer them to VAC, will be pretty obvious.
The ones we most likely hear about, which may be more complex, are the ones in which that determination is not that obvious. Our surgeons will do their best to determine what happened as much as they can, but the linkage to service may not be that obvious at the end of the day. When the case passed to VAC, it has to do the determination with its criteria. It's not always obvious that an illness is related to service.
