- Summary:
- The lengthy delays of benefit claims decisions that persist for Veterans returning home with injuries from recent (and past) conflicts confound their transition from military to civilian community living. This book presents findings of the National Council on Disability and evaluates the perceived factors contributing to the sustained Veterans Administration backlog. The book contains potential solutions and recommended measures to facilitate the resolution of initial disability claims and appeals.
