Disability Ratings for Mental Illness
Disability ratings for mental disorders range from 0, 10, 30, 50, 70, and 100%. The ratings are based upon the severity of social and occupational impairment.
VA Common Mistakes
- The VA has a long history of denying service connection for mental disorders because it fails to understand the signs and symptoms demonstrated during service.
- As part of the VA’s evaluation of your claim they will send you for an examination with one of their doctors.
- The VA doctors regularly misdiagnose conditions and minimize the level of severity.
- The VA also notoriously underrates mental disorders frequently rating them no higher than 30%.
The best guarantee to protect yourself from the above mistake is to have a VA disability attorney who is familiar with all types of mental impairments to accompany you and represent you each step of the way. Bosley & Bratch has championed this specific area in veterans’ rights and disability benefits. Work with our firm to make sure you receive an appropriate disability rating.
