Wondering why your VA disability ratings don't simply add together?
In this video, VA-accredited attorney Montana Crow explains how the VA calculates combined disability ratings using what's commonly called VA math or efficiency math. You'll learn why a 50% rating plus a 30% rating doesn't equal 80%, how combined ratings are determined, and why understanding the calculation matters when estimating your VA disability compensation.
To make the process easier, Berry Law created a VA Disability Calculator that estimates your combined disability rating and monthly compensation in seconds.
