Wayne TX Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 I am trying to get a straight answer on this question. I have been told once you have exceed 51% in combined disability rating via VA math then a Vet is entitled to full healthcare services at any VAMC without anymore co-pays. Is this true or BS?!
