How is my combined disability rating calculated?

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

VA uses the whole-person method. Each rating applies to what is left of the whole person, then the total rounds to the nearest 10. Fifty and 30 make 70, not 80. The Combined Rating Calculator shows the math.
