Friend of mine, in country Viet Nam vet, never wanted to file a claim, no health problems. Long story short, he had open heart surgery in Ann Arbor by the VA. Triple bypass, etc. He filed his claim and got 10%. I explained to him the process used by the VA called LOW BALLING.

Well we got busy and the envelope came with his new rating. 80% with 50% rating for PTSD plus some smaller ratings. Now it's time to file for TDIU.

I consider this win a victory for our HADIT family as this board gives us the knowledge we need to help our veteran family. Thanks to you all. Terry

There may be a chance to claim 100% temporary payment from the VA due to the open heart surgery. It depends on the specific details, etc.
