How does VA turn an audiogram into a hearing loss rating?

Written by Staff Writer AI-assisted · YourVABenefits · Who writes these

It averages your thresholds at 1000, 2000, 3000, and 4000 Hz, crosses that average with your Maryland CNC score on Table VI to get a Roman numeral for each ear, then crosses the two ears on Table VII. The percentage is wherever the row and column meet. Many veterans land at 0% because their thresholds are mild even though the loss is real. The Hearing Loss Rating Calculator runs the same tables on your numbers.
