5 Secondary Claims That Can Increase Your VA Disability Rating

Today we are discussing five secondary service connection claims that could increase your VA disability rating. If a veteran files for and is granted service connection for more than one condition, each condition receives its own VA rating. If you receive multiple ratings, they will be added together using VA math to form a combined disability rating, allowing veterans to reach a higher level of disability compensation.

I hope my suggestion will get to the secretary, Mr. McDonough. It would be nice if veterans could go to a; Patience First, Urgent Care, Community Care or a Doctor that he/ she chooses. It seems like the deck is stacked against veterans walking through the door. I think this way would save time and money. The Disability Benefits Questionnaire (DBQ) could run though a database and tell the rater within minutes whether a veteran claims are denied or granted and it would be coming from a neutral party. Optum Serve/LHI gets paid from the VA and then they subcontract to a Nurse Practitioner, who then gets paid.
I have one more thing to add, how much is a C&P exam? I’m curious as to how much money is being spent weekly, monthly and yearly, because someone is getting rich off C&P exams whether it’s Optum Serve/LHI or Nurse Practitioner or both.
Sincerely yours,

I took notes. Great info! I'm seeing my doctor to discuss these issues.

I have several secondary claims that I want to file but I don't know how to receive a nexus letter

[@mstammycamille3935]

All you need to do is get a diagnosis of the secondary issues being claimed. Then get a DBQ letter for your doctor to complete explaining the connection or Nexus.
