Physician Assistant and prior C&P examiner Leah Bucholz discusses Compensation and Pension exams for Erectile Dysfunction.
Leah provides an insightful guide for veterans about the C&P examination process for erectile dysfunction (ED). She explains that veterans can be service-connected for ED either directly if diagnosed while on active duty, or secondarily if related to other service-connected disabilities like mental health issues or certain medications. Leah details the examination process, noting that veterans will receive a packet outlining the details of their appointment, which involves reviewing the Disability Benefits Questionnaire (DBQ) and potentially undergoing a physical examination, although this can be declined. She clarifies common concerns about physical exams and highlights various aspects of the DBQ, including medical history, medications, and associated conditions.
