Thanks Eddie, I'm in that class with an Agent Orange cancer and it's reevaluated every 6 mos, it'll be sweet if I can get out of it!
VA Medical Center is getting back on track here after Trump's Maro Largo Trio had it totally screwed it up!

And what "class" would that be that gets Agent Orange cancer? I've never heard of such a think. What will be sweet if you can get out of it? I probably don't know as much as you about Agent Orange.

From the PACT Act:

To get a VA disability rating, your disability
must connect to your military service. For
many health conditions, you need to prove
that your service caused your condition.
But for some conditions, we automatically
assume (or “presume”) that your service
caused your condition. We call these
“presumptive conditions.” We consider a
condition presumptive when it's
established by law or regulation. If you
have a presumptive condition, you don’t
need to prove that your service caused
the condition. You only need to meet the
service requirements for the presumption.

There are 23 presumptive conditions listed.

VA disability ratings generally are not permanent. Rather, they are subject to review by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) at any time. If VA finds that your situation or condition has changed since you received your initial rating, it may assign you a new rating—or cease your benefits altogether.

I hope cost is not considered when reviewing a person's situation. Anyone who mentions what it cost to care of our Veterans should not be on any board of review.
