Dear Brother and Sister Vets,
Please help settle this. I just had a heated discussion about what a total rating should be. The Vet is 40,30,30,30,20,10,10,10. The rating was 80% until recently when the 3 10% were determined but the benefit would remain at 80%. That is incorrect and I encouraged the Vet to file a NoD and ask them to recalculate because the rating now adds up to 90%. Using the combined ratings table, I got 84% before the 10%s, adding one by one -not 30%- the total rating is 88 then round to 90%. What do you come up with? I did it manually and with the Hadit calculator. Same damn answer. The naysayer said that once the Vet gets to 80%, the 10%s don't count! They said there is some super secret formula that we don't know about. The combined ratings tables are just what "They" want us to see. Oh Brother! Please add the ratings and tell me what you get according to the info available from the VA: The Combined Ratings table. Thank You!

I agree with Hamslice...with thr 3 additional 10% added in that's a combined rating of 91% so 90% total combined rating...now you need additional 50% rating to get to the 100% I figure about 1

UPDATE!!! I took Hamslices advise and dialed the 800 #, explained the situation and got a remedy for the Vet. The rep calculated 90% -88% rounded up- and sent the request for correction. Also the Bila
