  • With so much riding on a VA claim, it should be handled with meticulous accuracy…at least in a perfect world. But the reality is that the VA is run by humans just like you and me, and a mistake is more common than we realize. After all, they are dealing with a backlog of more than 212,000 VA claims (as of April 29, 2023). With that kind of volume handled by review teams that are often short-staffed, there’s plenty of room for human error.

    We frequently see clerical errors (such as getting a date wrong) that diminish a veteran’s benefits. In other cases, the VA may fail to consider all of a veteran’s evidence or fail to apply VA policies correctly. There have even been cases where VA employees deliberately hid and falsified applications.

    You may have waited months or even years for a decision on your VA claim. If the rating is less than what you believe you are entitled to, the VA may have made an error. In this video, we will discuss the most common errors and what you can do about these errors. Let’s dive in!

  • Few things can derail your life, like sexual trauma. It can trigger an onslaught of physical and emotional symptoms, making functioning at work and in relationships difficult.

    Tragically, it’s all too prevalent in the military. Studies show that 33% of female veterans and nearly 2% of male veterans screened positive for military sexual trauma (MST). This means that 1 in 3 women and 1 in 50 men respond “yes” to experiencing MST when screened by their VA provider. Yet the military’s power structure often discourages people from reporting MST and getting the help they need. They worry that their superiors may not believe them or that there will be retribution.

    There is hope and help for survivors of MST. While the military still has a long way to go, they are working to make it easier for survivors to report sexual trauma. And regardless of whether the survivors reported the trauma directly after the event, the military is opening up more ways for survivors to qualify for the help they need.

    If you are a survivor of military sexual trauma, it’s time to stop suffering in silence. Out of fairness to yourself and those around you, it’s time to claim the VA benefits you are legally entitled to for what you suffered and put yourself on the path to recovery.

  • According to the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) affects anywhere from 11 to 30% of veterans, depending on the conflict they were involved with. For example, 11 to 20% of veterans who participated in Iraqi Freedom and Enduring Freedom have been diagnosed with PTSD compared to 30% of Vietnam veterans.

    But these statistics only tell part of the story. First, they link PTSD to combat, but non-combat PTSD is very common in veterans. They also fail to represent those who may not even realize that they have PTSD—or those who suspect they have it but fail to seek a diagnosis and treatment.

    So the question for you is, could you be suffering from PTSD without knowing it or getting the help that you need? If so, you’re not alone. Too often, veterans suffer in silence in the abyss of PTSD.

  • Are your ankles, hips, or elbows stiff or painful?

    Orthopedic conditions are common in veterans due to high-risk training, long ruck marches, military parachuting, and many other activities that cause extra wear and tear. Because military life can cause your joints to age more quickly—many veterans experience debilitating conditions as a result of their service.

    In this podcast, our experts explore Orthopedic conditions. Orthopedic conditions arise from injuries or diseases that affect the musculoskeletal system. The musculoskeletal system consists of muscles, bones, nerves, joints, ligaments, tendons, and other connective tissues. Damage to any of these tissues or structures can come from injuries or excessive wear and tear (as well as chronic diseases).

    A VA disability claim for an orthopedic condition is one involving your joints or muscles. Your orthopedic conditions could affect your knees, hips, back, shoulders, elbows, wrists, neck, feet, or ankles. Veteran orthopedic conditions can also involve bones, ligaments, tendons, and cartilage.

    The VA uses the term “musculoskeletal disabilities” instead of “orthopedic disabilities,” but they’re the same thing.

    Let’s dive in!

  • CHAMPVA (the Civilian Health and Medical Program of the Department of Veterans Affairs) is among the many benefits not clearly understood by the veteran community. As a result, some dependents miss out on this comprehensive healthcare program and are stuck paying exorbitant rates for private insurance.

    CHAMPVA insurance provides eligible beneficiaries with high-quality healthcare coverage, including healthcare services and supplies, at almost no cost.

    But, you might be wondering if CHAMPVA insurance is good or bad.

    In our experience at VA Claims Insider, CHAMPVA is a fantastic healthcare benefits program with very few, if any, drawbacks.

    In general, CHAMPVA covers the cost of most healthcare services and supplies that are medically necessary for beneficiaries.

    CHAMPVA currently has an outpatient deductible cost of $50 per calendar year and a cost share of 25% of the CHAMPVA allowable charge, up to the catastrophic cap, which is $3,000 per calendar year.

    Let’s jump in and see what our experts have to say.

  • Understanding the effects of Agent Orange exposure is crucial for you and others who served in the Vietnam era. Our aim is to help you become informed about the health conditions linked to Agent Orange exposure and the resources available to support you.

    In this video, we’ll explore the history of Agent Orange, its symptoms, and the health issues it may cause.

    Agent Orange was an herbicide used during the Vietnam War, primarily between 1962 and 1971.

    The U.S. Air Force sprayed nearly 19 million gallons of herbicides in Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia as part of a military project called Operation Ranch Hand. At least 11 million gallons of that total were Agent Orange. American forces used more than 20 million gallons of herbicides during those years.

    The name “Agent Orange” comes from the orange stripe on the herbicide barrels. It was a mixture of two chemicals, 2,4-D, and 2,4,5-T, which produced a highly toxic byproduct called dioxin. Dioxin is the primary culprit behind the harmful effects of Agent Orange exposure.

    After the war, it became apparent that Agent Orange exposure had long-term effects on the health of many veterans. Through the recent 2022 release of the PACT Act, the VA now officially recognizes 42 different conditions associated with Agent Orange exposure. It’s crucial to be aware of these connections so that you can take care of your health and get the support you deserve.

    It’s important to note that exposure to Agent Orange wasn’t limited to Vietnam.

    If you served in Vietnam, there are different ways you might have been exposed to Agent Orange:

    On land in Vietnam or on a ship traveling on Vietnam’s inland waterways On a ship within 12 nautical miles off the coast of Vietnam and Cambodia between January 9, 1962, and May 7, 1975. This is sometimes referred to as the “Blue Water Navy” exposure

    Additionally, exposure to Agent Orange may have occurred in other situations, such as:

    Crew members of C-123 planes that were used during and after the Vietnam War. These planes might have had herbicide residue on them Serving near the demilitarized zone in Korea between September 1, 1967, and August 31, 1971 Being stationed on any U.S. or Royal Thai military base in Thailand between January 9, 1962, and June 30, 1976

    Finally, some veterans might have been exposed to Agent Orange during tests and storage at military bases in the United States and other countries, including locations added by the PACT Act.

    In this video, we’ll be discussing Agent Orange, its effects, and presumptive conditions related to Agent Orange exposure as recognized in the 2022 PACT Act. Let’s dive in.

  • If you’re suffering from anxiety that’s related to your military service, you may be eligible for VA disability compensation for an anxiety VA rating from 10% to 100%.

    The VA estimates that 43% of veterans who served in Iraq or Afghanistan have at least one mental illness, which includes anxiety. Despite how common anxiety is amongst veterans, less than 25% of these veterans suffering from mental health issues seek support and benefits.

    Today, we discuss how to get the anxiety VA rating you deserve.
