From Forensic Accounting to Veterans Benefits: Fighting the Beast

Veterans, I’m no vet, but a $4 million VA claim fraud case drew me in—I’m a retired CPA at Veterans Claims Analytics. Pete Hegseth, on Episode #143 of the Shawn Ryan Show (Nov 7, 2024, 00:21), said, “The VA is the beast, and they want to feed it, not starve it.” Whether filing a claim solo or through a VSO, our analytics offer data on best practices and a clear understanding of what constitutes new and relevant evidence to navigate pitfalls.

Fraud chasing led here—VA’s old law (38 U.S.C. § 5904) and vague rules bloat a 300k-case VA backlog (2024). 40% of claims fail (2023 VA) as some sources push questionable filings. Pete Hegseth told Shawn Ryan, “They’ll tell you they’re reforming, but the incentives are all wrong.” Veterans Claims Analytics shares data on processes, efficiencies, and what evidence counts—informing your prep, not directing it. We don’t file or advise—just offer insights.

Veterans Claims Analytics fights with data, best practices and a clear understanding of what constitutes new and relevant evidence to sidestep risks. Pete’s beast looms, but whether filing a claim solo or through a VSO, your benefits stay yours.
