Scaadl-tell me all about it

Hi Folks,
Can someone give me the details on scaadl? I understand the program (so I thought). Husband is in the wounded warrior program. I asked our manager about it and it's felt almost 'secretive' since. They reluctantly gave us the form. No real discussion but wanted to know "how I found out" about the benefit. (Here at the peb forum)

Pcm filled it out. 3 weeks later, they said it wasn't filled out 'enough'. Took back same day to pcm who gave bulleted details for each score no problem.
A week later PCM called to say that a doctor in DC called him personally for more info and felt he was being very "picky".
Why the triple checking?
Our manager has been to our home for 2 home visits in 6 weeks. All medical diagnosis and medical records all support it.
Then was told no one ever gets approved if they're on limited duty by care manager.
Well..I don't understand that since nothing on the form asks about current duties. My husband "works" maybe an hour from home answering emails. It's not like he's doing anything at "work". It's all about how much I help in caregiving....what am I missing here?

I wonder how long it takes to be approved?
Is it normal to go through all this triple checking for relatively simple form? It's been a month and we've heard nothing back from them.
what was your experience?

By searching your post history, it appears your husband is in the Navy, is this correct? If so here is a relevant document.

Yes, Navy.
I know I had asked something about this before....it seems like I get different answers everywhere.
