VA Stops PTSD Claim Review

VA has decided to not review 72,000 claims for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, thought to be possibly fraudulent due to insufficient documentation. The VA has now reviewed all 2,100 files and the problems appear to be confined to clerical errors, such as missing documents, and not fraud. This means that veterans who have been diagnosed with PTSD and receive VA disability compensation will not have to worry about loosing their benefits.
