Y'all better turn your production up to 11.[/quote]

The Court of Appeals reverses and remands approximately 75 percent of the decisions issued by the Board of Veterans’ Appeals. Any increase in the quota, even to 3.5 decisions a week, will dramatically increase the court remand rate.

You know and I know that management does not care about that. The only thing they care about is 1) how many decisions they pump out and,
More recently, 2) how many hearings they conduct. [/quote]

I’m aware of that. I don’t expect any changes unless the VA disability process becomes adversarial. The current non-adversarial process means that disability claimants benefit from a high production rate. I mean, if I were representing VA disability claimants, I would want BVA attorneys to crank out as many decisions as possibility, as it’s much easier to grant a claim than it is to deny it. The real losers are: 1) BVA attorneys who face incredibly high quotas; and 2) taxpayers who must pay all the claims that are improperly granted.[/quote]

What is incredibly sad is that the Agency doesn't care about the institutional knowledge it loses every day when attorneys and judges leave for less stressful environments. [/quote]
