Comment on AN32-Proposed Rule-Charles Kuder

The proposed RIN 2900-AN32--Stressor Determinations for Posttraumatic Stress Disorder is actually a typical example of the VA's desire to severely limit a veteran's ability to successfully pursue a PTSD claim. A major fallacy is wording limiting diagnosis to VA C&P doctors ONLY. This is in direct conflict with reasonable and legal (Accepted in a federal court) determinations of the existence and severity of a recognized medical condition diagnosed by doctors professionally and legally qualified to do so. And, quite commonly, more qualified to make a diagnosis than the average VA "medical professional" often deliberately utilized by the VA to create a diagnosis and "medical opinion" unfavorable to a veteran's claim, in direct conflict with standard medical practice, medical treatment, and authoritative medical references.
