Maximize Your VA Disability Rating: Secondary Claims

Many physical and mental health conditions result in other health issues. When veterans are looking for VA benefits for those issues, they would need to file a claim for secondary service connection. A veteran can receive a secondary service-connected disability rating for any health condition that is medically related to a condition that’s service connected. Medical evidence must link the primary and secondary service-connected impairments, or the secondary impairment must link to another service-connected health concern. ______________________________ Table of contents: 00:00 INTRO 00:29 What is service connection? 01:14 What is secondary service connection? 02:00 Why secondary service connection matters 03:29 Common secondary service connections 03:45 Psychiatric conditions 04:08 GERD 04:51 Erectile Dysfunction 05:25 Migraines 05:54 How to file a secondary claim 06:23 How Woods & Woods can help ______________________________ Helpful Related Videos: How to Prepare for a C&P Exam: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oX3jEmQCSps Is TDIU Right for You?: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ctIF-dAV5yA Types of Service Connections for VA Benefits https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Me683TsabYE What is Considered One Disability for TDIU Benefits? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xphz_10aTtA ____________________________ RESOURCES for more information about secondary VA claims: Veterans who can’t work: Apply for TDIU https://woodslawyers.com/veterans-disability-lawyers/total-disability-individual-unemployability-benefits/?utm_source=youtube.com&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=secondary+conditions+Kuhlenhoelter How to Claim Secondary Service Connection for a VA Disability https://woodslawyers.com/va-disability-list-secondary-conditions/?utm_source=youtube.com&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=secondary+conditions+Kuhlenhoelter VA mental health ratings https://woodslawyers.com/va-mental-health-ratings/?utm_source=youtube.com&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=secondary+conditions+Kuhlenhoelter Getting Your VA Rating for GERD https://woodslawyers.com/gerd-va-disability-rating/?utm_source=youtube.com&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=secondary+conditions+Kuhlenhoelter Connecting Erectile Dysfunction to Your Military Service https://woodslawyers.com/get-va-disability-for-erectile-dysfunction/?utm_source=youtube.com&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=secondary+conditions+Kuhlenhoelter How Veterans Can Get a VA Rating for Migraines https://woodslawyers.com/va-rating-migraines/?utm_source=youtube.com&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=secondary+conditions+Kuhlenhoelter ____________________________ Get a free VA Disability Benefits Guide E-book available here: https://woodslawyers.com/va-disability-101/?utm_source=youtube.com&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=secondary+conditions+Kuhlenhoelter ____________________________ If you are unable to work due to your service-connected disabilities, you may qualify for total disability based on individual unemployability (TDIU).
