I am a 100% but employable disabled Vet. Recently the VA has sent my file to Veterans Evaluation Services for a psych evaluation. I did not file a claim or anything since I got 100%. I have nothing to gain from another evaluation as I would like to remain employable. Has anyone else been through this? Is the VA trying to take away my 100% rating?

You guessed right they are trying to take away even 10% will drop your disability pay to about half of what you get now. Since doing away with the unemployability was in the open and created a big stink the VA is doing it this way by reevaluating everyone with 100% so they can say you have improved in an area or two and reduce it. Expect it on mine as well and I am unemployable for health reasons and if they do then I believe an attorney and major lawsuit that will probably take 10 years to get it done is in order. Have the proof of them knowing my condition mentioned by the VA doctors but denied by the VA on my claim caused by the same condition that has caused all of my conditions and it is service connected. Exams done by other than doctors in the field of medicine your condition is for does one see a Chiropractor for diabetes, Eye doctor the VA uses that is rated at 2 star and very unprofessional and dirty office and instruments. I rest my case in this explanation VES and VA are the same.

They were professional, fast and friendly! After 30 years of fighting to get disability for PTSD they were able to get it pushed through! And within a month of seeing them!

You can be a 100% disabled veteran and not be permanent and total. If you are permanent and total, it should state that when you were rated, it also should state that you don't have any further exams. You also can be in hundred percent and have a condition that possibly can get better. That would be a cause to be re-evaluated.
