Provider completes VA required DMA certifications (10 hours)

Provider is assigned VES New Provider Orientation Materials (6090 min) in Reach 360

When both VA DMA Certifications and VES Orientation materials are complete provider is activated.

Schedulers assign first cases and request a PEP session

Based on cases assigned VEScreated DBQ and Medical Opinion trainings are assigned in Reach360 (varies but 12 hours on average)

PEP session (which is now just a quick check in) happens before first exams to verify the provider has reviewed DBQ training content and feels prepared for first day of exams

First exams are seen

Optional Up Front QA session is offered to the provider for live review of first exam reports
