A Compensation and Pension exam is the VA's medical evaluation of your disability claims, and preparation means knowing which symptoms matter most to the examiner, what documentation to bring, and how to describe your condition in ways that match VA rating criteria. Going in unprepared often means the examiner documents a far less severe picture than your actual lived experience.
