What is the primary office responsible for processing claims related to radiation exposure?

The primary office responsible for processing claims related to radiation exposure is the Jackson Regional Office (RO). This office is designated to handle these specific types of claims due to its focused expertise and resources. Claims related to radiation exposure often involve unique considerations and require specialized knowledge about the health effects of radiation and the documentation of such claims. Therefore, the Jackson RO plays a crucial role in ensuring that veterans who have been exposed to radiation receive proper evaluation and adjudication of their claims.

The other ROs listed may handle various veterans' claims but are not specifically designated for processing radiation exposure claims, which is why they do not serve this function. The Jackson RO's specialization allows for a more effective and efficient claims process, ensuring that veterans have their claims assessed by personnel trained in the complexities associated with radiation exposure scenarios.
