VA disability ratings, explained step by step

Your individual ratings

Enter each condition separately. For compensable arm or leg conditions, select the affected side so the bilateral factor can be evaluated.

Privacy first: Your entries are calculated in this browser and are not sent to or saved by VetClaimMath. Saving is optional and stores the scenario only on this device.

Search the VA condition library

Search a condition or diagnostic code, then select the percentage shown on your VA decision. VetClaimMath adds it automatically.

Available percentages come from the VA rating schedule. A diagnosis, symptom match, or listed percentage does not establish service connection or guarantee a rating. The library is not exhaustive and does not account for analogous ratings, overlapping symptoms, staged ratings, or every special rule. Important information · 38 C.F.R. Part 4

What does this mean? Select “Yes” only if VA recognizes that your spouse needs another person’s regular help with daily activities, or requires protected care because of a qualifying physical or mental condition. This is an additional dependent benefit—not the veteran’s own Aid and Attendance or Special Monthly Compensation.

Important: VetClaimMath is an independent educational tool, not affiliated with or endorsed by VA. Results are estimates—not VA decisions, medical advice, legal advice, or a guarantee of benefits. Individual evidence, effective dates, overlapping symptoms, staged ratings, special compensation rules, and regulatory changes may alter the outcome. Calculator entries are not transmitted to VetClaimMath; optional saves remain unencrypted in this browser until deleted or browser data is cleared.
