"More Pain = Higher Rating" Is a Major VA Misunderstanding

Category:

Many veterans believe more pain automatically leads to a higher VA rating, but VA ratings are usually based on functional impairment, objective findings, range of motion loss, occupational limitations, flare-ups, and how the condition affects daily life under 38 CFR Part 4. Learn how VA raters, C&P examiners, and BVA decisions evaluate severity beyond pain complaints alone. Understanding how the VA measures functional loss can help veterans better understand why some claims receive lower evaluations despite severe pain.
