VA Math, Confusing, Right? Calculate Your Final Rating Percentage!
Tbird posted a blog entry in Tbirds Blog,
10 + 50 = 50 and other VA math mysteries explained.
VA Math It’s Not Your Mother’s Arithmetic
“VA Math” is the way that the VA computes combined impairment ratings for multiple conditions in a Veteran’s compensation benefits claim – and it requires that you unlearn real math. When a Veteran has multiple medical conditions that are service-connected and the Veterans Affairs rates each at a different percentage, it would seem that they should just add up your percentages to get to a total body impairment rating.-

Post in I need some help, please
Tbird posted an answer to a question,
If you are looking for help taking care of him something like a home health aide that comes in during the week and helps with what he needs help with. For this I would contact your local VA hospital and ask to speak to the Social Worker, explain your situation, ask for help and how to proceed.
If you are looking for additional compensation in the form of Special Monthly Compensation check out this video from CCK Law I think it will give you a good idea what it is and how to go about applying for it.
For example there is a Special Monthly Compensation Rate for TBI try reading this article from The Veterans Law Blog on SMC T It is a subscription site but it allows you to view 3 articles for free a month.
Special Monthly Compensation (SMC)
I hope this helps.

Question
Bound4heaven
Greetings,
I am trying to help another vet with his claims. The DRO is refusing to use edivence on 2 C&P exams performed by 2 specialists at a VAMC which gave their opinions that were greatly on the side of the veteran, now the DRO wants another C&P exam for the same condition. (The multiple C&P exams were done less then 6 months ago).
I am concerned the DRO has no clue what he or she is doing and if he goes back for yet another C&P exam for the same issue who knows whom he will get (General MD, PA or God forbid a N.P.) I am going to try and challenge this DRO. The veteran in question has many service related issues that make it extremely hard for him to get out of his home. The closest VAMC to us is over 70 miles. Can any one help me with some CFR regs? I have a few in mind, but need some guidence. Thank you and God Bless you all.
