Apparently; on the face of it; in all appearances. Isn’t that how OPM views all medical disability retirement cases?
It is as if the “medical specialist” opens each file before reviewing it, with a notation under his or her breath, of: “Ostensibly”. And so the challenge is on — of persuading from the presumptive world of the “Ostensible” to the world of approval where appearances are turned into reality.
How does one do that? Why are some Federal Disability Retirement applications more persuasive than others?
Of course, there will always be the “irrefutable” cases; then, some cases which fall in the “probably no chance” category, simply because there is not enough medical evidence to persuade; then, as with most cases, somewhere in the middle kingdom where the coalescence of medical evidence, the law, agency actions or inaction, with a dash of concurrent and parallel legal issues must be all taken into consideration in their aggregate evidentiary presentation.
Ostensibly. By all appearances. That is the challenge — to persuade OPM that the ostensible is the real.
Contact an OPM Disability Retirement Attorney who deals only with OPM Disability claims, and begin the process of putting together an ostensibly viable Federal Disability Retirement case and turn it into the reality which brings about an OPM approval.
Sincerely,
Robert R. McGill, Lawyer
