With so much riding on a VA claim, it should be handled with meticulous accuracy…at least in a perfect world. But the reality is that the VA is run by humans just like you and me, and a mistake is more common than we realize. After all, they are dealing with a backlog of more than 212,000 VA claims (as of April 29, 2023). With that kind of volume handled by review teams that are often short-staffed, there’s plenty of room for human error.
We frequently see clerical errors (such as getting a date wrong) that diminish a veteran’s benefits. In other cases, the VA may fail to consider all of a veteran’s evidence or fail to apply VA policies correctly. There have even been cases where VA employees deliberately hid and falsified applications.
You may have waited months or even years for a decision on your VA claim. If the rating is less than what you believe you are entitled to, the VA may have made an error. In this video, we will discuss the most common errors and what you can do about these errors. Let’s dive in!

Few things can derail your life, like sexual trauma. It can trigger an onslaught of physical and emotional symptoms, making functioning at work and in relationships difficult.
Tragically, it’s all too prevalent in the military. Studies show that 33% of female veterans and nearly 2% of male veterans screened positive for military sexual trauma (MST). This means that 1 in 3 women and 1 in 50 men respond “yes” to experiencing MST when screened by their VA provider. Yet the military’s power structure often discourages people from reporting MST and getting the help they need. They worry that their superiors may not believe them or that there will be retribution.
There is hope and help for survivors of MST. While the military still has a long way to go, they are working to make it easier for survivors to report sexual trauma. And regardless of whether the survivors reported the trauma directly after the event, the military is opening up more ways for survivors to qualify for the help they need.
If you are a survivor of military sexual trauma, it’s time to stop suffering in silence. Out of fairness to yourself and those around you, it’s time to claim the VA benefits you are legally entitled to for what you suffered and put yourself on the path to recovery.

According to the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) affects anywhere from 11 to 30% of veterans, depending on the conflict they were involved with. For example, 11 to 20% of veterans who participated in Iraqi Freedom and Enduring Freedom have been diagnosed with PTSD compared to 30% of Vietnam veterans.
But these statistics only tell part of the story. First, they link PTSD to combat, but non-combat PTSD is very common in veterans. They also fail to represent those who may not even realize that they have PTSD—or those who suspect they have it but fail to seek a diagnosis and treatment.
So the question for you is, could you be suffering from PTSD without knowing it or getting the help that you need? If so, you’re not alone. Too often, veterans suffer in silence in the abyss of PTSD.

Are your ankles, hips, or elbows stiff or painful?
Orthopedic conditions are common in veterans due to high-risk training, long ruck marches, military parachuting, and many other activities that cause extra wear and tear. Because military life can cause your joints to age more quickly—many veterans experience debilitating conditions as a result of their service.
In this podcast, our experts explore Orthopedic conditions. Orthopedic conditions arise from injuries or diseases that affect the musculoskeletal system. The musculoskeletal system consists of muscles, bones, nerves, joints, ligaments, tendons, and other connective tissues. Damage to any of these tissues or structures can come from injuries or excessive wear and tear (as well as chronic diseases).
A VA disability claim for an orthopedic condition is one involving your joints or muscles. Your orthopedic conditions could affect your knees, hips, back, shoulders, elbows, wrists, neck, feet, or ankles. Veteran orthopedic conditions can also involve bones, ligaments, tendons, and cartilage.
The VA uses the term “musculoskeletal disabilities” instead of “orthopedic disabilities,” but they’re the same thing.

CHAMPVA (the Civilian Health and Medical Program of the Department of Veterans Affairs) is among the many benefits not clearly understood by the veteran community. As a result, some dependents miss out on this comprehensive healthcare program and are stuck paying exorbitant rates for private insurance.
CHAMPVA insurance provides eligible beneficiaries with high-quality healthcare coverage, including healthcare services and supplies, at almost no cost.
But, you might be wondering if CHAMPVA insurance is good or bad.
In our experience at VA Claims Insider, CHAMPVA is a fantastic healthcare benefits program with very few, if any, drawbacks.
In general, CHAMPVA covers the cost of most healthcare services and supplies that are medically necessary for beneficiaries.
CHAMPVA currently has an outpatient deductible cost of $50 per calendar year and a cost share of 25% of the CHAMPVA allowable charge, up to the catastrophic cap, which is $3,000 per calendar year.
Let’s jump in and see what our experts have to say.

Understanding the effects of Agent Orange exposure is crucial for you and others who served in the Vietnam era. Our aim is to help you become informed about the health conditions linked to Agent Orange exposure and the resources available to support you.
In this video, we’ll explore the history of Agent Orange, its symptoms, and the health issues it may cause.
Agent Orange was an herbicide used during the Vietnam War, primarily between 1962 and 1971.
The U.S. Air Force sprayed nearly 19 million gallons of herbicides in Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia as part of a military project called Operation Ranch Hand. At least 11 million gallons of that total were Agent Orange. American forces used more than 20 million gallons of herbicides during those years.
The name “Agent Orange” comes from the orange stripe on the herbicide barrels. It was a mixture of two chemicals, 2,4-D, and 2,4,5-T, which produced a highly toxic byproduct called dioxin. Dioxin is the primary culprit behind the harmful effects of Agent Orange exposure.
After the war, it became apparent that Agent Orange exposure had long-term effects on the health of many veterans. Through the recent 2022 release of the PACT Act, the VA now officially recognizes 42 different conditions associated with Agent Orange exposure. It’s crucial to be aware of these connections so that you can take care of your health and get the support you deserve.
It’s important to note that exposure to Agent Orange wasn’t limited to Vietnam.
If you served in Vietnam, there are different ways you might have been exposed to Agent Orange:
- On land in Vietnam or on a ship traveling on Vietnam’s inland waterways
- On a ship within 12 nautical miles off the coast of Vietnam and Cambodia between January 9, 1962, and May 7, 1975. This is sometimes referred to as the “Blue Water Navy” exposure
Additionally, exposure to Agent Orange may have occurred in other situations, such as:
- Crew members of C-123 planes that were used during and after the Vietnam War. These planes might have had herbicide residue on them
- Serving near the demilitarized zone in Korea between September 1, 1967, and August 31, 1971
- Being stationed on any U.S. or Royal Thai military base in Thailand between January 9, 1962, and June 30, 1976
Finally, some veterans might have been exposed to Agent Orange during tests and storage at military bases in the United States and other countries, including locations added by the PACT Act.
In this video, we’ll be discussing Agent Orange, its effects, and presumptive conditions related to Agent Orange exposure as recognized in the 2022 PACT Act. Let’s dive in.

If you’re suffering from anxiety that’s related to your military service, you may be eligible for VA disability compensation for an anxiety VA rating from 10% to 100%.
The VA estimates that 43% of veterans who served in Iraq or Afghanistan have at least one mental illness, which includes anxiety. Despite how common anxiety is amongst veterans, less than 25% of these veterans suffering from mental health issues seek support and benefits.

A VA presumptive condition is one that the VA “presumes” to be service-connected, even if there’s no specific Nexus (meaning “link” or “connection”) for service connection.
Presumptive conditions work like this: If you served at X location during the qualifying period and developed Y condition as a result, then X + Y = automatic service connection. In our experience, VA presumptive conditions are easy to win because you just need to show on your DD 214 that you were in an eligible location during a specific period and that you developed a qualifying disability as a result.
VA ratings for presumptive conditions range from 0% to 100%, depending on the condition and the severity of symptoms.
It’s important to note that many VA presumptive conditions are not in the VA Schedule for Rating Disabilities. Thus, they are rated by analogy to the closest condition with similar symptoms.
Alright, let’s dive in.

Get the INSIDER’s Scoop on TMJ VA Ratings!
Welcome to our podcast on TMJ VA Ratings discussed by a panel of four of our experts.
Veterans suffering from temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder may be eligible for VA disability compensation. However, filing a claim for your TMJ VA rating can be a complex and challenging process.
TMJ, or temporomandibular joint disorder, is a disorder that affects your jawbone and the muscles around it.
Your temporomandibular joint is the joint that connects your jawbone to your skull, and it’s used every time you talk, chew, or swallow.
If you’re dealing with this condition, it can severely impact your quality of life, as we use our mouths a lot throughout the day.
The disorder can cause a variety of symptoms, such as:
• Jaw pain during chewing or talking
• Inflammation around your jaw
• Clicking or popping sounds when you open and close your mouth
• Difficulty opening your mouth wide
• Difficulty swallowing
• A locked jaw
• Headaches
• Earaches
The pain and discomfort can range from mild to severe and can even impact your ability to eat or speak normally.
One mistake or misstep in filing for a TMJ VA rating could result in a denied claim or a lower rating than you deserve.
We’re here to help you avoid those mistakes and get the benefits you deserve the first time you file. You could be rated at up to 50% for TMJ.

Are You Eligible for Special Monthly Compensation?
Special monthly compensation (SMC) is a special form of VA disability payment intended to help veterans, spouses, surviving spouses, or parents that have certain needs or disabilities.
Veterans who receive a VA disability rating are most often given a rating between 0% and 100%. This is known as a schedular rating, with conditions in the disability rating schedule assigned a specific percentage (ratings) that reflect the severity of the disability. Each 10% increment in the veteran’s overall disability rating (along the way from 0 to 100) corresponds to an increase in tax-free monthly compensation.
Many veterans awarded service connection with schedular (10%-100%) ratings assume that no further benefits are available to them. However, the VA acknowledges that some disabilities and/or financial needs deserve compensation greater than what a schedular rating can offer—even if you have a 100% rating. That’s where Special monthly compensation comes in.
Let’s take a closer look and answer some of the most-asked questions surrounding special monthly compensation!

Overwhelmed by the process of filing a Fully Developed VA Claim? The VA Claim Process is complicated. We get it. Today, VA Claims Insider is going to share with you some secrets of the VA rating system, including the benefits of a Fully Developed VA Claim.
Let’s face it. Most Veterans have no idea how to claim the compensation they deserve after discharge from the Military. When they do apply for disability, there’s the obstacle of just filing a simple claim.
An FDC claim is determined appropriate for the following:
– Service connection (SC) initial
– Increased evaluation
– A claim for Permanent and Total (P&T) rating
The form accepted by the VA for an FDC claim is VBA-21-526ez. Checking the box “Fully Developed VA Claim” indicates what type of claim you are filing.
Unfortunately, there is no “exact” timeline when it comes to FDC claims. However, we have seen these claims come back in a week. Stay the course, and remember the more pertinent information you can deliver the easier it makes the VA rater’s life.

Welcome to our latest Podcast on how disabilities affect veteran mental health. In this podcast, we explore the impact of disabilities on veteran mental health.
According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, only 50 percent of veterans who need mental health treatment will get the treatment they need and are entitled to. There are many reasons why this can be, most of those reasons being that vets choose to avoid filing VA disability mental health claims.
Eligible veterans have the option to file VA Disability Mental Health claims which can provide a range of extra benefits and, ultimately, improve veteran mental health.
The old saying “Time heals all wounds” may still be popular, but there is no truth to it. Many studies have shown that mental illness will only continue to get worse if left untreated.

Veterans commonly get Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBIs) during their time in service, and TBIs often cause or make other mental health conditions worse.

If so, you may be eligible for VA disability benefits for Traumatic Brain Injury to help cover the costs of your medical treatment and other expenses.
In this video, we will explain the process for applying for VA disability Benefits for Traumatic Brain Injury and provide tips on how to increase your chances of being approved.

As you may already know, the PACT Act is a game-changer for more than 5 million veterans.
One of the HUGE things about the PACT act: it expands the list of presumptive conditions. So if you were exposed to toxins and have one of these conditions, there’s no need for you to prove a nexus.
In simple terms, it means you can get the compensation and healthcare you need without the notorious VA wait times!

Military Sexual Trauma (MST) is sexual harassment or sexual assault experienced by a military service member during their service. MST can happen to anyone.
1 in 3 female veterans and 1 in 50 male veterans report having experienced MST during their time in service. However, the actual statistics are assumed to be much higher, as MST victims often don't report their trauma.
MST can be devastating, even often disabling.
It can also impact survivors long-term, causing lasting physical and mental health problems. MST survivors are more likely to experience depression, anxiety, PTSD, and substance abuse.
If you've experienced MST, you deserve benefits and compensation. And if you're wondering how the VA verifies MST, or you're ready to get the VA rating you deserve, watch this video!

How Much is VA Disability for YOU? - It depends on your disability rating. How much veterans receive in disability compensation depends on how the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) rates your service-connected disability or condition. If you have more than one service-connected condition, the amount of monthly compensation is based on your combined disability rating. To be eligible for VA disability compensation, you must submit a claim, establish a service connection for at least one condition related to your military service (whether on active duty, active duty training, or inactive duty training), and have VA approve your claim and assign a disability rating for that condition. VA assigns a disability rating based on the frequency, duration, and severity of symptoms. VA makes a determination about the severity of your disability based on the evidence you submit as part of your claim, and/or from military records. VA rates disability from 0% to 100%, in 10% increments.

To establish presumptive service connection for Asthma, Sinusitis, and/or Rhinitis (to include Rhinosinusitis) under 38 CFR 3.320 for these Burn Pit Exposure Presumptive Conditions, your evidence of record must show qualifying service at one of the specified duty locations, and manifestation of the qualifying diagnosed chronic disability(ies) within the presumptive period (within 10 years of discharge from active duty service during the dates given above).

In today’s video, I’m revealing my TOP 10 C&P EXAM PREP TIPS IN UNDER 10 MINUTES! This is your “Just-In-Time” VA Compensation and Pension Exam strategy guide to help you be fully prepared when the big day arrives. Many veterans are afraid of VA C&P exams and often worry about having your VA rating lowered. Look, I get it. I've personally attended over 10 C&P exams and not one of them made me feel comfortable... However, there are some specific actions you can take to prepare to win your VA C and P Exam and get the VA benefits you’ve earned for your honorable service.
Here are some of the things that I’ll cover in this NEW video: 💥Top 10 C&P Exam Prep Tips Explained! 1. You must be OPEN, HONEST, and TRUTHFUL at all times! 2. The C&P examiner is NOT your friend… 3. You must know what’s in your Medical Records, Personal Statements & Buddy Letters 4. Review any Disability Benefit Questionnaires (DBQs) / Nexus Letters 5. Deep-dive: CFR Title 38, Part 4, the Schedule for Rating Disabilities 6. Do NOT have your best day…this does NOT mean to lie/stretch the truth! 7. Be “UNCOMFORTABLY VULNERABLE…” 8. Mental Health Conditions: Occupational/Social Impairment + Symptoms! 9. Any Other Conditions: Pain/Limitation of Range of Motion + Symptoms! 10. How was your disability caused/made worse by your active-duty service?
How will I know if I got a favorable C&P exam? A favorable VA C&P exam will contain a “Nexus” statement, which at a minimum should state, “at least as likely as not” due to a veteran’s military service or another service-connected disability for secondary service connection. If you see any statement such as “less likely” or “not likely” this is a signal that you had an unfavorable C&P exam and could be denied VA disability benefits.
What should I do if I had a bad C&P exam? The good news is you can get a new exam, but you must take some specific actions to make that happen. #1. Immediately call the VA general phone number at 1-800-827-1000, speak to a representative, complain, and ask him/her to make a note in your record for the VA regional office in your state. #2. Write a Memorandum of Record (MFR) and upload it to VA.gov right after after your bad c and p exam (Stick to the facts: Who, What, When, Where, Why, How) #3: Call the White House VA Hotline and ask for a new C&P exam: 1-855-948-2311. Calls are answered by a live agent 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year. #4. If all else fails, consider writing your State Congressman and/or Senator.

Before the diagnosis of Fibromyalgia can be made, the muscle pain must be present for longer than three months. There is no blood test, or X-ray can tell if you have Fibromyalgia. The diagnosis is made solely by taking a history and doing a physical exam. During the exam, pain must be occurring at specific sites on the body called tender points. There are 18 of these sensitive spots. Most are located on the neck and back.

How to Get a 60% VA Rating for GERD in 2021! - GERD VA Disability Rating Criteria - Yes, GERD is a VA disability and can be rated at 10%, 30%, or 60%, depending upon the severity of your symptoms. GERD is most often rated under CFR 38, Part 4, VA Schedule of Ratings, Diagnostic Code 7346, Hernia Hiatal. - Common Symptoms of GERD in Veterans - * A burning sensation in your chest (heartburn), usually after eating, which may worsen at night * Chest pain * Difficulty eating and swallowing * Regurgitation of food particles or sour liquid * Sensation of a lump in your throat
- GERD Secondary to PTSD & PTSD secondary to GERD - Many veterans with GERD or acid reflux, especially those who were diagnosed long after leaving the military are eligible under the law for GERD secondary to PTSD. For example, if veterans are taking SSRIs to help manage their PTSD symptoms, perhaps you’re suffering from side effects of those SSRI medications, which can lead to digestive system issues. - What you need before you can get a GERD VA rating secondary - By law, there are three evidentiary elements that must be satisfied for GERD secondary to PTSD to prove secondary service connection: * A medical diagnosis of GERD in VA medical records or private records (unless you already have a diagnosis of GERD in your service treatment records) * Evidence of a service-connected primary disability (such as PTSD, depression, anxiety, migraines, IBS), AND * Medical nexus evidence establishing a connection between the service-connected disability (PTSD) and the current disability (GERD)

What is Chronic Pain - Chronic Pain is long lasting pain which interferes with your daily life. It begins to qualify as chronic once it lasts over six months. In some cases, chronic pain is persistent for years of someone’s life. Chronic Pain can be linked to a number of different reasons, including injury, disease, or damage to nerves. Chronic pain is a condition which directly affects someone’s mental health. Through anxiety, lack of sleep, hopelessness, and depression chronic pain can reveal itself. How to prove Chronic Pain - Another step in this process is establishing credibility. One way you can do this is by proving that you have tried to relieve the pain in other ways. This could be done with some approaches, including massage therapy, seeing a chiropractor, or visiting with a pain specialist.
How to file - Chronic Pain can be submitted as a primary or secondary to other service related conditions. With this, you will need to understand how primary and secondary claims are rated. First off, when filing the initial primary claim, you have to prove beyond a reasonable doubt, that your military service directly causes it. Secondly, to keep your current rating or increase it from the VA, you have to prove, that is has created your “quality of life” and “impairment to your earning capabilities”, and has progressively gotten worse over time.

Who is eligible for VA disability compensation? To be eligible for VA disability compensation benefits under the law, a veteran must prove that their disability was caused or made worse by their active duty military service. Did you know that a VA Nexus Letter and an Independent Medical Opinion (IMO) are the SAME THING (the terms are sometimes used interchangeably)? In our experience, a credible VA Nexus Letter is the single most crucial document a veteran can provide the C&P examiner and VA Rater to help prove service connection on an “at least as likely as not” basis. Yep, a high-quality, credible Nexus Letter really is the single, most powerful way to prove service connection!

Educational Benefits for Veterans There are two GI Bills you may qualify for: - The Montgomery Bill - The Post-9/11 GI Bill - The Forever GI Bill
As a Veteran, you have earned educational benefits for yourself and your family. We’ll detail eligibility and how to claim benefits in this post covering education benefits for Post-9/11 Veterans and their families. The Post-9/11 GI Bill is one of the best applications of your educational benefits as it is widely available to most Veterans, and if you plan ahead, you can pass these benefits on to your dependents. Educational Benefits for Spouses and Children Utilizing the Post-9/11 GI Bill for your dependents is a great way to pay for college. If you apply the Yellow Ribbon program, you can even pay for your child’s entire private college tuition! Dependents’ Educational Assistance (DEA) Also known as Chapter 35, the DEA program is designed to help children and spouses of Veterans with disabilities. Although this is a subset of the GI Bill, monthly payments are sent directly to the dependent using the program instead of being paid to the institution.

Somatic Symptom Disorder (SSD) - Previously called Chronic Pain Syndrome, means a veteran is having a considerable focus on his/her physical symptoms, such as pain, weakness, limitations, and shortness of breath. This is typically tied to the daily chronic pain and life/health limitations related to a disabled veteran’s current service-connected disabilities rated at 0 percent or higher, thus, it is sometimes referred to as a “Lifestyle Impact Claim”.
How to Diagnose Somatic Symptom Disorder in Veterans - A diagnosis of Somatic Symptom Disorder, which is widely recognized as a disabling condition, is accepted by VA as a disability for compensation purposes. Adequate medical evidence must be of record that identifies the specific manifestations of the disease present in order to accurately evaluate the condition. This means veterans need a medical diagnosis of Somatic Symptom Disorder. There must be a clear Nexus or logical link to a veteran’s current service-connected disabilities for secondary service connection. The veteran must have current symptoms of Somatic Symptom Disorder that are causing occupational and social impairment.

Top 5 VA Disability Claims for Secondary Service Connection Is Obesity a VA Disability? No, there is no VA disability rating for Obesity (weight gain) under the law. However, the Walsh case established that Obesity may be an “intermediate step” for secondary service connection between a service-connected primary disability and a non-service connected disability when the current service-connected condition “aggravates” the Obesity (weight gain also qualifies here). Considering Secondary Service Connection for Obesity In accordance with M21-1, Part IV, Subpart ii, Chapter 2, Section A – Deciding Claims for Disability Compensation, IV.ii.2.A.2.f., Obesity per se is not a “disability” for the purposes of Service Connection (SC) under 38 CFR 3.310 for secondary service connection. If obesity resulting from a SC disease or injury is found to produce impairment beyond that contemplated by the applicable provisions of the rating schedule, consider an extra-schedular rating under 38 CFR 3.321(b)(1) for SC based on that impairment. Obesity may be an “intermediate step” between a SC disability and a current disability that may be SC on a secondary basis under 38 CFR 3.310(a).

In today's video tutorial, I'm going to reveal and explain the NEW VA disability rates 2021 (to include the COLA 2021 increase of 1.3%) along with 5 expert tips to increase your VA disability pay. So, what will you learn in this new video? 💥Tip #1: The 2021 COLA increase for disabled veterans is 1.3%. First, you’ll discover that disabled veterans with a 10% combined VA disability rating or higher will first see a 1.3% COLA increase on their January 2021 direct deposit payment. For example, if you were getting $1,000/month in 2020, a 1.3% increase on $1,000 is $13, meaning your 2021 VA disability rates would increase to $1,013/month. 💥Tip #2: You Served. You Deserve. I’m also going to share some shocking statistics about VA disability benefits and why I think less than 25% of eligible veterans receive any VA benefits at all (Did you know ~75% of eligible veterans don't get any VA benefits?). I give you permission to get the VA disability benefits you've earned by law. You'll also learn about High Value VA claims vs. Low Value VA claims and how the VA's fuzzy math calculation works against you when trying to increase your VA rating. 💥Tip #3: VA pay chart 2021. You’ll get to see the official VA disability pay chart 2021 explained step-by-step. The VA makes a combined VA rating and adds any dependents you have. Your overall monthly VA pay is determined by your final VA disability rating percentage, total number of dependents, and whether you qualify for Special Monthly Compensation (SMC). 💥Tip #4: VA pay dates 2021. I share and explain the official 2021 VA disability pay dates schedule by month and day of the week. For all VA disability benefits, the actual benefit for a month is paid the first business day of the following month. However, when the first day of the month falls on a non-business day or a holiday, VA compensation benefits will be paid on the last business day prior to the first of the month. 💥Tip #5: VA Claims Insider Elite membership program + unlock your bonuses. I’ll show you HOW to get the VA disability benefits you’ve earned for your honorable service to our nation. You'll learn how to increase your VA disability rating in 2021 with personalized strategy, expert-level education & empowerment, and new and relevant medical evidence.

Hello fellow veterans! Maranda Boggs here and I am a Veteran Coach with VA Claims Insider. Today I wanted to tough topic to talk about and that is veteran suicide.

Veteran Suicide, breaking down the wall! {Your Life Matters} For some Veterans in crisis, the only way they know how to deal with their issues is to avoid their issues. Many Veterans believe they are strong enough to get past the worst of times on their own. As we know from many scientific studies and through anecdotal evidence, it doesn’t work out very often. When it doesn’t work out, the Veterans in crisis who go without support commonly wind up as a statistic. Suicide is a major problem for the Veteran community and for all Veterans in crisis. What’s worse is, in the past decade, the number of suicides among the Veteran community has passed the number of deaths attributed to the Vietnam war. Research has revealed the Veterans with the highest rate of suicide are middle aged males. This means most Veteran suicides are happening years after a service member is given their DD-214. Support is required throughout a person’s life, but a Veteran in crisis can be years removed from service when the crisis occurs.

HOW TO WIN A PRESUMPTIVE CONDITION?

Hello fellow Veterans, DP Veteran Master Coach with Team Champions and today along with fellow Veteran Coach Amy and Jen a licensed trauma therapist and we will be discussing Military Sexual Trauma (MST) and discussing the tolls it takes on veterans and how you can claim a VA disability claim for MST. If you want to work with Team Champions you can sign up at http://www.joinVACI.com
What is MST? “The definition used by the VA comes from Federal law (Title 38 U.S. Code 1720D) and is psychological trauma, which in the judgment of a VA mental health professional, resulted from a physical assault of a sexual nature, battery of a sexual nature, or sexual harassment which occurred while the Veteran was serving on active duty, active duty for training, or inactive duty training.” Strong emotions: feeling depressed; having intense, sudden emotional responses to things; feeling angry or irritable all the time. Feelings of numbness: feeling emotionally “flat”; difficulty experiencing emotions like love or happiness.
It is also stated that because a lot of sexual trauma goes unreported, the evidence is accepted from sources that most claims would not allow. Here are some examples of those options: - Department of Defense sexual assault or harassment reporting forms - Investigative Reports completed during military service - Law enforcement reports - Mental Health Counseling Centers - Hospitals - Requests for transfer to another military duty assignment - Decrease work performance - Unexplained behavior (economic or social) - Sexual dysfunction

A difficulty with things that remind them of their experiences of sexual trauma: feeling on edge or “jumpy” all the time; difficulty feeling safe; going out of their way to avoid reminders of their experiences. Difficulties with relationships: feeling isolated or disconnected from others; abusive relationships; trouble with employers or authority figures; difficulty trusting others.
It is also stated that because a lot of sexual trauma goes unreported, the evidence is accepted from sources that most claims would not allow. Here are some examples of those options: - Department of Defense sexual assault or harassment reporting forms - Investigative Reports completed during military service - Law enforcement reports - Mental Health Counseling Centers - Hospitals - Requests for transfer to another military duty assignment - Decrease work performance - Unexplained behavior (economic or social) - Sexual dysfunction

A Legendary Journey Dealing with Invisible Injuries and PTSD Service Dogs What is a service dog? You have probably heard the terms service dog and assistance dog before, but do you know what these terms truly mean? Generally speaking, a service dog or assistance dog is a working dog specially trained to help a person or group of people with a disability or specific needs. Under the ADA, service dogs cannot be denied entrance to businesses, even food service establishments, state and local government facilities or nonprofit organizations that serve the public. However, service dogs must be under control at all times. This generally means they should be leashed or harnessed—unless these get in the way of the dog's duties, in which case the dog must still be under the handler's control. Eligibility for a Service Dog If you are a veteran or first responder who is interested in applying for a service dog, please review the following information to determine if you meet our eligibility requirements.

Back Pain, What you need to know to maximize your VA disability rating! How are VA claims for back pain rated? Many veterans suffer from various back conditions due to their active duty military service and perhaps you’re wondering if you can get VA disability for back pain. Generally, VA disability ratings for back pain range from 10% to 100% and depend upon the frequency, severity, and duration of symptoms, including Painful Motion, Limitation of Range of Motion (ROM), and Functional Loss or Impairment. What is the “Limitation of Range of Motion” for VA disability for back pain? The limitation of the range of motion principle is arguably the most important principle that applies to VA disability ratings for back pain.
Why? Because the general rating formula for diseases and injuries of the spine talk about “flexion,” which is the act of flexing or bending. Any limitation of Range of Motion (ROM) should be measured with a Goniometer by the medical professional at your VA C&P Exam for Back Pain. You must be open, honest, and truthful at your C&P exam for back pain, and make sure to STOP the C&P examiner as soon as you feel any pain. If you can’t move at all without pain, make sure to let the examiner know that. Can I be rated for more than one VA disability for the back? In some situations, you can be rated for more than one disability condition for your back that causes different levels of impairment and is clearly separately rated conditions. For example, you may have a 50% VA rating for your back due to unfavorable ankylosis of the entire thoracolumbar spine.

Obtaining a 70% rating for Radiculopathy requires complete Paralysis of the upper, middle, or lower extremities. What this means is that all movement is either lost or severely affected. What the VA is looking for when determining your VA Rating for Radiculopathy is the Frequency, Severity, and the Duration of your symptoms over time. Complete Paralysis, as described above, means that all movement is lost, or it is severely affected. Incomplete Paralysis means that range of motion is not entirely lost, but affected. The ratings for Radiculopathy are 20%, 40%, 50%, and 70%. You must have a Diagnosis or Subjective Complaints of Radiculopathy to be granted Service Connection.

In fact, according to Medical Research, Military Members are 4x more likely to develop Sleep Apnea that the civilian population! This number may come as a shock, but what it means is that Sleep Apnea is one of the most Claimed and Denied VA Claims that we see! So what is Sleep Apnea? According to the Mayo Clinic, this condition is defined as a potentially dangerous sleep disorder in which breathing repeatedly stops and starts.
The three main types of Sleep Apnea are Obstructive Sleep Apnea Central Sleep Apnea Complex Sleep Apnea Syndrome Some of the more common symptoms of Sleep Apnea Include: -Loud Snoring -Episodes in which you stop breathing during sleep -Gasping for air during sleep -Awakening with dry mouth -Morning Headache -Difficulty staying asleep (Insomnia) -Excessive daytime sleepiness (hypersomnia) -Difficulty paying attention while awake -Irritability

When it comes to fighting for the VA Rating and Compensation that YOU DESERVE, the only time you lose in the VA Disability Claims process is if you QUIT or DIE! Seriously, you may get knocked down again and again, but the only thing stopping you from getting the compensation you deserve is YOU! You need to keep punching back if you feel that you morally and ethically deserve a disability rating by the VA. What it all boils down to is MEDICAL EVIDENCE. This is a CRUCIAL component to winning your VA Disability Claims.

Somatic Symptom Disorder (SSD), previously called Chronic Pain Syndrome, means a veteran is having a considerable focus on his/her physical symptoms, such as pain, weakness, limitations, and shortness of breath. This is also known as a Lifestyle Impact Claim. This is typically tied to the daily chronic pain and life/health limitations related to a disabled veteran's current service-connected disabilities rated at 0 percent or higher. It is sometimes referred to as a "Lifestyle Impact Claim," although no such claim exists in CFR 38, Part 4, Schedule for Rating Disabilities. The disabled Veteran typically has excessive thoughts, feelings, and behaviors relating to these physical symptoms, which causes significant occupational and social impairment in the Veteran's work, life, and/or social functioning.

Compensation & Pension Exams are stressful for many reasons. If you are a Veteran and have ever had to attend one for anyone of your disabilities, you understand how nerve-racking they can be. They can go one of two ways, either you have a good exam or a bad exam. You CANNOT change who the examiner will be, but you CAN change how prepared you are. The C&P ExamExam is the #1 MOST IMPORTANT DAY in the entire VA Disability Process. The VA Rating Officials rely (ALMOST) solely on the results of your C&P ExamExam. So KEEP IN MIND that the examiner is simply a note-taker, and anything you say can either help or harm your VA Disability Rating! Now, you might be wondering why the VA almost always requires a C&P Exam. The short answer is there are many!

Lara Chase is a Veteran as well as a Doctor of Physical Therapy! If you are a Veteran or current Active Duty Service Member suffering from Neck and Back pain this is a MUST WATCH! Lara & Combat Craig break down the signs, symptoms and how Veterans can apply for benefits for their neck and back injuries.
As many of you know, neck and back pain can have serious effects on your daily life. Veterans are often unaware of why they are in pain, and what that pain is telling them. It is highly likely that your pains may very well be from another previous injury you sustained and the current back pain you're now feeling is from overcompensation of some sort. If this is the case, your injuries can be Secondary Service Connected if you are already Service Connected for another injury.
The VA Claims Process is a pain, but it doesn't have to be. More often than not, the Veteran's disability claims are denied due to a lack of medical evidence. This is where Veterans hit a wall and are unable to get past it without the right documentation. VA Claims Insider is a company of Veterans fighting for Veterans to get the compensation they deserve. We understand what you've been through and what you're going through because we've already done it! If your lacking the proper evidence and are frustrated with the VA, VA Claims Insider has your back. Our team understands how the VA works. They are well aware of Secondary Service Connections and are experts at determining which injuries were caused or made worse by another injury.

Many veterans who experience a traumatic event on active duty develop PTSD, also called your VA PTSD Claim.
This traumatic event is called a PTSD stressor by the VA. It is estimated that veterans are four times (4x) as likely to have or develop PTSD compared to those who didn’t serve in the military–a truly shocking statistic. It’s reasonable to assume a veteran will pursue a VA claim for PTSD at some point, and this post will help you on your path to service connection for PTSD.
The VA states a stressor involves exposure to death, threatened death, actual or threatened serious injury, or actual or threatened sexual violence. The exposure can be related to: Direct exposure Indirect exposure, such as learning that a close relative or close friend was exposed to trauma Witnessing in-person Repeated or extreme indirect exposure to details of the event For rating purposes, the VA classifies PTSD as either (1) PTSD Combat or (2) PTSD Non-Combat.
Examples of PTSD combat stressors • Rocket and mortar attacks in Iraq • Enemy ambush in Vietnam • IED event in Afghanistan • Flight deck plane crash in the Gulf War • Seeing another service-member killed while deployed Examples of PTSD non-combat stressors
Military Sexual Trauma (MST), assault or harassment • Service-member suicide • Serious car accidents • Training accidents • Witnessing a rape • Serious weather event such as a hurricane • Death of a family member
How to Prove Your Service-Connected VA Claim For PTSD Stressor verification is a huge deal for VA disability claims for PTSD. The reality is if the veteran can’t prove their PTSD stressor on an “at least as likely as not” basis, you’ll likely be denied service connection. This is also referred to as “corroboration” of a claimed stressor. By definition, “corroborate” means “to support with evidence or authority and make more certain.” The VA has different rules to assess whether a stressor event needs further verification. But in our experience, I want to make something very clear to veterans seeking service connection for PTSD: The burden of proof is on YOU to show on an “at least as likely as not” basis that the stressor event happened to YOU.

How Many Veterans Have PTSD? According to the Department of Veterans Affairs, the prevalence of combat related Post Traumatic Stress Disorder among Veterans depends on which conflict a service member was involved with. About 11 to 20 out of every 100 veterans (or between 11% and 20%) who served in operations Iraqi Freedom and Enduring Freedom have PTSD each year. About 12 out of every 100 Gulf War Veterans (or 12%) have PTSD each year. About 15 out of every 100 Vietnam veterans (15%) were currently diagnosed with PTSD when the most recent study of them (the National Vietnam Veteran Readjustment Study) was conducted in the late 1980s. It’s believed that 30% of Vietnam veterans have had PTSD in their lifetime.
How Many Veterans Have PTSD MST? Sadly, another common cause of non-combat PTSD in the military is referred to as PTSD MST, which stands for Military Sexual Trauma (MST). This is any form of sexual harassment or sexual assault that occurs on active duty. MST can happen to both men and women and can occur during peacetime, training, or war. Among veterans who use VA health care, it is reported that: 23 out of 100 women (or 23%) reported sexual assault when in the military. 55 out of 100 women (or 55%) and 38 out of 100 men (or 38%) have experienced sexual harassment when in the military.
According to the VBA’s statistics reported to congress, PTSD was the #3 most commonly claimed VA disability, with 1,753,091 veterans (of 4,743,108) receiving VA compensation having a service-connected PTSD VA rating at 0 percent or higher.

Brian Reese VA Insider breaks down “How to Win Your VA Lifestyle Impact Claim!” A Lifestyle Impact Claim is also Chronic Pain Syndrome and Somatic Symptom Disorder. Those terms are synonymous with depression and anxiety in veterans. These three terms all mean the same thing when it comes to VA claims for mental health.
What is a Lifestyle Impact Claim? I consider this a high-value va claim and if you meet the criteria under the law, a Va Lifestyle Impact Claim is something you should consider as you are developing your strategy for veteran benefits. A Lifestyle Impact Claim is a high-value secondary claim that many veterans are eligible for due to one or more primary service-connected disabilities. Many veterans, lawyers, and VSOs DON’T know about secondary claims, which are eligible for compensation under the law, just like any other ratable disability. It is also actually called Somatic Symptom Disorder according to DSM-V, and the VA used to call it “Chronic Pain Syndrome with Depression/Anxiety.” You are eligible for this if you already have a rating from the VA as 0% or higher, and you have specific, rated, disabilities. For example, you are rated at 20% for your left shoulder, 10% for your right knee, and 0% for your back. If these disabilities have caused chronic pain and negatively limiting your life, then you may qualify for a secondary claim to mental health. You will need a certification from a Psychologist for Somatic Symptom Disorder, which will link the two together.
There are three types of service connection, there is direct service connection, secondary service connection or presumptive service connection and we are going to be talking about secondary service conditions because that is exactly what Chronic Pain Syndrome - Somatic Symptom Disorder is. Va rates all service-connected disabilities based on your social and occupational impairment and VA will rate you based on how Somatic Symptom Disorder affects your ability to work and your social life. If you are unable to lift your niece because of the chronic pain in your neck then that is an example of a disability that directly affects your lifestyle and that is why we call it a Lifestyle Impact Claim.

Many veterans don't realize they are eligible for high-value secondary VA disability claims, also called Secondary Service Connection. Service connection on a secondary basis requires a showing of causation. A showing of causation requires that the secondary disability be shown to be proximately due to, or the result of, another service connected VA disability condition. In order to prove secondary service connection, however, you'll need to get a VA DBQ and a VA Nexus Letter, or you risk having your secondary VA claim denied. What this means is that you're telling the VA that your current disability was caused or made worse by ANOTHER service connected disability in your body rated at 0% or higher. Secondary VA disability claims are rated just like primary VA disability claims. You can get rated between 0-100 for any secondary disability claims you're suffering from as a result of another service connected disability rated by the VA.
The benefit of secondary VA claims and secondary service connection is that they are much easier to win and service connect, especially if you've been out of the military for more than 12 months.

Need a medical nexus letter to service-connect your conditions to get rated at the appropriate level in support of your VA disability claim or appeal? Veterans, how would you like to learn How to Get a 100 Percent P&T VA Rating? Brian Reese VA Claims Insider here, USAF disabled veteran, and founder of VA Claims Insider. Part of the reason we call ourselves VA Claims “INSIDER” is because we get access to information that nobody else does…this video is no exception. If you’ve ever asked yourself “How can I get a 100 Permanent and Total VA Rating?” this video is for you! Total and Permanent Disability VA, also known as 100 percent P&T, applies to veterans whose disabilities are Total (meets total disability definition) AND Permanent (impairment is reasonably certain to continue throughout the life of the disabled person).
Many veterans mistakenly interchange “Permanent” and “Total,” when, they have very different meanings. For example, a veteran can have a Total disability that’s temporary, such as a total knee replacement OR a Permanent disability rated less than 100 percent, such as Sleep Apnea that’s been rated at 50 percent for the past 10 years. Veterans can also be both Permanent and Total, not just one or the other. The major benefit of being deemed both “Permanent and Total” or 100 P&T is that veterans are protected from a VA ratings reduction. Furthermore, being rated 100 percent P&T entitles you or your family to a host of additional VA benefits.

In this video, Brian Reese VA Claims Insider reveals 5 SECRETS to Increase Your Service Connected Disability Rating with actionable strategies and lessons learned to help veterans get the VA disability rating and compensation they deserve. The 5 VA Claim SECRETS Revealed - LIVE with VA Claims Insider are: ☑️ 1. Fully Developed Claim (FDC) versus Standard Claim and WHY veterans should ONLY file Fully Developed Claims. This could result in a more accurate VA rating in less time. ☑️ 2. Secondary Service Connection. Veterans are eligible to file secondary disability claims, which can help you prove service connection much easier for any conditions that were caused or made worse by another service-connected disability in your body. We also recommend veterans obtain Disability Benefit Questionnaires (DBQs) and Medical Nexus letters to help you win, service connect, and get rated at the appropriate level under 38 CFR. ☑️ 3. PTSD VA claims and Somatic Symptom Disorder VA claims. Mental health claims are high-value claims, which have a very high likelihood of getting rated at 30% or higher on their own. ☑️ 4. Stop uploading new evidence after claim submission! This may slow down the VA rater and delay your VA claim decision. ☑️ 5. Write a Statement in Support of a Claim for EVERY VA disability condition you are filing for. This will help the VA Rater understand the condition you’re claiming, the possible Nexus links to prove service connection, and your current severity of symptoms.

Need a medical nexus letter to service-connect your Tinnitus or Hearing Loss claim and get rated at the appropriate level in support of your VA disability claim or appeal?
In this video, Brian Reese the VA Claims Insider discuss How to Win Your VA Claim for Hearing Loss or Tinnitus. In our experience, hearing loss is one of the most difficult VA disability claims to get service connected. The typical VA compensation for hearing loss is a 0% service connected VA rating. What is the difference between Hearing Loss and Tinnitus? Tinnitus, also known as “ringing in the ear syndrome” is very different than hearing loss. Tinnitus is normally a very subjective VA claim, and veterans either have it or they don’t. Hearing loss, in contrast, is a very objective VA claim, and an audiologist will measure your hearing loss at various decibels and frequencies to determine your VA rating for hearing loss.
Tinnitus is the number one easiest VA disability claim to win by the way. According to the 2018-2019 VA disability claims data, Tinnitus was the most commonly claimed disability for all Veterans. Your Tinnitus VA Claim can only have one VA rating. It is either 10% or nothing. Your hearing loss VA rating depends on several factors, which are listed below. What is the typical VA compensation for hearing loss or other ear conditions? Tinnitus VA Rating Tinnitus is either rated at 10 percent or nothing. There is no unilateral or bilateral factor for your Tinnitus VA rating.
Loss of Ears VA Rating Veterans will receive a 30 percent VA rating for the loss of one ear. Veterans will receive a bilateral factor and a VA rating of 50 percent for the loss of both ears. Eardrum VA Rating Veterans will receive a 0 percent VA rating for perforated eardrum. If you found this video valuable, please give it a like. If you know someone who needs to see it, share it.

How to Prove Service Connection In this video, I explain how to use lay evidence to service connect your VA disability claim, even if you’ve already filed or been denied. This information is especially important if your service treatment records lack sufficient medical evidence of any in-service disability or condition. Side note: This is VERY common veterans! Why? Because you often didn’t go to the doctor enough while you served on active duty, and thus, your service treatment records do not contain any evidence of a disability or condition.
I can literally read the VA’s denial letter now: “The veterans active duty service treatment records do not contain any medical evidence or subject complaints of the disability or condition.” Here’s the deal veterans: You can prove your VA disability claim and overturn previous denials of service connection using something called “lay evidence.” What is Lay Evidence? Lay evidence simply means “after the fact evidence” and it must be competent and credible. “Competent lay evidence” means any evidence not requiring that the proponent have specialized education, training, or experience. Lay evidence is competent and credible if it is provided by a person who has knowledge of facts or circumstances and conveys matters that can be observed and described by a lay person.
VA Lay Statement Examples 1. A personal statement you write on the VA Form 21-4138 documenting how you think your current non-combat Post Traumatic Stress Disorder is due to an in-service sexual assault and stressor event that occurred 20 years ago IS lay evidence. 2. A Buddy Letter written by someone you served with who can shed some light on how your shoulder separation occurred on active duty IS lay evidence. 3. A spousal letter for sleep apnea, which documents what your spouse has witnessed over the years, and the approximate dates he/she noticed your sleep apnea symptoms began in-service IS lay evidence. 4. A current co-worker’s statement in support of a claim describing the severity of your current PTSD symptoms IS lay evidence. If you found this video valuable, please give it a like.

A buddy letter is simply a credible statement in support of a claim, written by a competent individual 18 years of age or older, who has direct, first-hand knowledge of an event or injury, and offers an account of what they witnessed or are witnessing in support of a veterans VA disability claim.
These personal statements can be from a fellow service member, spouse, friend, pastor, co-worker, boss, adult child, or any other competent and credible witness. A buddy letter can be the linchpin to winning your VA disability claim.
A VA buddy statement constitutes “lay evidence” under the law, which simply means “after the fact” evidence. The Rating Veteran Service Representative (RVSR) at the VA MUST consider a buddy letter because it’s considered a secondary source of evidence in support of your VA disability claim.
When writing or obtaining a buddy letter in support of a veterans VA disability claim, you can simply use the VA Form 21-4138, Statement in Support of a Claim.
The VA Form 21-4138, official .pdf form is still the PREFERRED method of any personal statements according to VA Rating Officials. A great VA buddy letter is short and sweet. Think less is more.
VA Raters are very busy people, so you want to give them the exact information they need, at the moment they need it to help support a Veterans VA disability claim.
In 3-4 paragraphs, you should explain (1) your name, information, and how you know the veteran. (2) what you witnessed or are witnessing, (3) the veterans’ current symptoms of the disability, and (4) sign and date your name to the best of your knowledge and belief.
Please reach out to us at VA Claims Insider, and we’ll get you the VA disability rating and compensation YOU deserve.

🔥 Tip #1: VA C&P Exam for PTSD Overview
After you’ve filed your VA claim for PTSD, you’re likely going to get a C&P exam from a Licensed Psychologist or Psychiatrist at either a VA medical facility by a VA doctor OR by a contracted C&P examiner at a private medical facility.
🔥 Tip #2: VA C&P Exam for PTSD Questions
When you arrive at your c and p exam for PTSD, you’ll likely be handed a 20-question paper exam called the PCL-5. There are a few variations of this self-assessment measure, which may include the PCL-5, PCL-5 with LEC-5, and/or the PCL-5 with Criterion A.
🔥 Tip #3: 8 Things for Your VA C and P Exam for PTSD
- Know what’s in your medical records! There is no substitute for knowing what’s in your service treatment records, VA medical records, or any private medical records. 2. Review your Disability Benefit Questionnaire (DBQ) for PTSD. 3. Review the eCFR, Title 38, Part 4, Schedule for Rating Disabilities 4. Do NOT have your best day… 5. Be UNFOMFORTABLY VULNERABLE… 6. PTSD claims comes down to your current level of “Occupational and Social Impairment.” 7. Know your true story cold…and potential in-service stressors (or other service-connected disability) that caused or made your PTSD VA worse. 8. You must be prepared to talk about your life in detail.

❤️ In this video, Brian Reese the VA Claims Insider explains how to prove your ptsd non combat stressor event.
This video is specific to veterans who want to learn about ptsd non combat claims, ptsd va rating, non combat ptsd, ptsd rating scale, ptsd disability rating, ptsd dbq, and 70 ptsd rating.
Recently at VA Claims Insider we’ve seen a string of non-combat PTSD denials because the veteran “failed to corroborate that the veteran was actually present and witnessed the non-combat PTSD event.”
For example, a Navy veteran had (1) A medical diagnosis of PTSD and was seeking treatment, (2) A personal statement (lay statement) in support of the PTSD claim, (3) A newspaper article about the hurricane event to confirm the stressor event, and (4) A “buddy letter” explaining that the event did in fact occur. At first glance, it might seem like this should have been a slam dunk case for non-combat PTSD. Not so fast. The veteran didn’t even get a Compensation and Pension (C&P) exam tips and the VA denied the claim. Why? Because the veteran “failed to corroborate that the veteran was actually present or witnessed the non-combat PTSD event.”
In ALL PTSD non-combat situations you MUST have a buddy letter from a first-hand witness who can corroborate (aka, verify and validate) that YOU were physically present and that you witnessed the stressor event occur.
It’s NOT enough to simply confirm that the event occurred … you must confirm you were there and witnessed the event, aka, the stressful event happened to you, which in VA speak means “at least as likely as not.”
The first evidence source is something called “Primary Evidence.” Primary evidence is generally considered the most reliable source for corroborating in-service stressors and should be carefully reviewed when corroboration is required.
Primary evidence includes: Service personnel records and pay records Military occupation evidence Hazard pay records Military performance reports Verification that the Veteran received Combat/Imminent - - Danger/Hostile Fire Pay Unit and organizational histories Daily staff journals Operational reports-lessons learned (ORLLs) After action reports (AARs) Radio logs, deck logs, and ship histories Muster rolls Command chronologies and war diaries, and Monthly summaries and morning reports.
The second evidence source is something called “Secondary Evidence.”
The VA may accept a “buddy statement” from a fellow Veteran as corroboration of a claimed in-service stressor if the statement is consistent with the time, place, and circumstances of the service of both the Veteran and the fellow Veteran making the buddy statement.

How would you like to learn about the 3 easiest things to claim for VA disability, using SECRET VA disability claims data as your guide?
Well, I’ve got some good news for you…
Brian Reese here, USAF 100% disabled veteran, and founder of VA Claims Insider.
Part of the reason we call ourselves VA Claims “INSIDER” is because we get access to information that nobody else does...this video training is no exception!
In my brand-new 45-minute video training you’ll learn about “The EASIEST VA Disabilities to Claim and WIN Quickly (using SECRET data revealed and explained for the first time…)”
Are you finally ready to get the VA disability rating and compensation YOU deserve?
Brian Reese, The VA Claims Insider, breaks down the 3 easiest VA claims to win with actual VA claims data from the Veterans Benefits Administration (VBA) from 2018-2019.
Here’s what you’ll learn:
SECRET #1: The difference between a HIGH-VALUE claim and a LOW-VALUE claim and why it’s important to add crucial medical evidence to your VA claims file, aka your C-File.
SECRET #2: The #1 easiest VA disability claim to win (Tinnitus), broken down step-by-step so you can win and service-connect it the right way, even if you’ve already filed or been denied.
SECRET #3: The Top 10 Easiest VA disabilities to claim and win, with on-screen video explanations and tips, tricks, and strategies to get a higher VA rating in less time.
I’m also offering over $7,000 worth of bonuses for veterans to join VA Claims Insider Elite, our premier medical consulting program to help Veterans get the VA disability rating and compensation YOU deserve.
The #1 reason why VA disability claims get denied is due to a lack of medical evidence. The #2 reason is the VA Rating Official is unable to determine the “Nexus,” and therefore, cannot grant service-connection.
We help you overcome these two problems by connecting you with medical professionals in our referral network who can provide Disability Benefit Questionnaire (DBQ) reviews and credible Medical Nexus opinions for a wide range of conditions.
This video training is specific to Veteran's who want to learn about easiest things to claim for va disability, tdiu, va disability made easy, ptsd va rating, easiest va disability claims, and top va disability claims, and list of benefits for veterans 70 disabled
