There are a couple of things. I, with the Legion, have a big issue about the delays, because you have a finite number of opportunities to appeal or redress a decision, and if you use those up, you cannot go back to the board. We always tell the veteran to make sure we have the best possible evidence. We don't take a case before the board without all of the available evidence. We will work with the veteran to get the MRI and we'll look at options.
Both the Bureau of Pensions Advocates and the Legion provide compensation. They will pay for medical opinions, doctors' reports, and test results to help them out.
