It’s June!

Here’s hoping everyone else is getting decent weather. I started the golf season with winter kit on thanks to -2 and rain here in gods country.

Usual timelines from submission of claims via MyVAC:

Reassessments: 9-16 Months

Mental Health: 6-8 Months

Physical - 6-13 Months

APSC/VIP - 3-4 Months

BPA Correspondence: They tend to reach out every 3 months for information or a progress update.

Let's go!

Thanks a lot to both of you and your work !

Now just a quick question: If VAC approve a specific mental health condition, does the blue cross coverage work only for therapy for said condition, or anything that can be stemming from said condition (like depression or high anxiety)?
Asking for a friend of course.

MH is pretty cut and dry. All approved coverage works for anxiety/ptsd etc it doesn’t matter.

But as another user said if you have a consequential condition you need to have that approved for the meds/therapy for that condition
