100% - What Privileges Do Vets Get? Spouse Medical? On Base? Not Sure!
Hi all: Can someone tell me what privileges a 100% rated vet gets? I think my spouse will have her medical covered entirely, but where will VA send her? Will she go to any outside provider? I'm not sure if CHAMPUS plays any role in this. Do Vets receiving 100% get on base privileges? Any help would be appreciated, -: )

Gaf Score 55
Maybe someone can clear domething up for me that even an old country boy can understand. I received a GAF score of 55 and was given 30%. I keep reading on Hadit that if you are working you will get less!! Whats the difference? If you got a GAF score of 55, should you not get the same rating whether one is working or not? It is still 55. I was wondering if the VA gives different ratings for Veterans who have lost a leg that works vs a Veteran who does not work. I understand that there are a lot of variables, but it does not seem fair. Papa
