MyVaBenefits is designed to help maximize the amount of disability money you and your family receive for your injuries when you retire or separate from the military.
Wounded Warriors, this app is for you. It will help you receive more money every month from the VA for your injuries and help you document your injuries and treatment.
This app is not just a calculator, it will tell you what information you need to provide (based on your selected injuries/diagnoses) and allow you to document and save the information in order to receive the most compensation for your injuries and illnesses. It allows you to document your injuries, symptoms, doctor visits, episodes and medications. It helps you save and organize the information in a secure encrypted database. When you are ready for your VA interview, email all of your injuries with your documentation to yourself or the VA. If you don't provide documentation to the VA, you may not receive the full compensation for your injuries or illnesses. It works completely offline, without an internet connection.
The VA will rely on YOU to provide them with all of the medical information that is pertinent to the injury you are claiming. They cannot not look through your medical records for you.
** Active duty personnel - Download it before you deploy!
** Use it to track injuries, and care given for you or your battle buddy. Everything in the app is self contained so it works when you are not connected to the internet.
** Veterans - My VA Benefits tells you how get a copy of your medical records from the Department of Defense (DoD) and the VA. It also helps you request your medical records using the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA).
** If you cannot find your diagnosis, let us know and we will research if for you. Just submit your question to our forum at our website: http://myvabenefits.us/

** We provide free updates for the app with the latest codes and rate tables when the VA releases them.
** If you encounter an issue with the app, do not uninstall it or you may lose your data. Just contact us at http://myvabenefits.us and we will fix it.
** For Back injuries see code 5320 or search for "spine".
** For Hearing loss, you cannot self-diagnose because "An examination for hearing impairment for VA purposes must be conducted by a state-licensed audiologist and must include a controlled speech discrimination test (Maryland CNC) and a puretone audiometry test. Examinations will be conducted without the use of hearing aids."
The idea is great because it could be overwhelming exploring all pertinent and potential diagnostics. The information is organized and there are a few issues that take away from it’s practically. An option to build a profile and keeping the information is vital for any app.
Need a serious upgrade

I downloaded the app and paid the money and now I see that the app probably hasn’t been updated with current percentages and current diagnosis in a very long time. I would love to use this app but half of my claims can’t even be found.
Nothing Great

Missing all kinds of schedule of rating codes and diagnosis. Not worth the money.
Poor and not as described

The app provides information you can get for free from the Internet or VA. It's states it will add your disability amount but "*", it may not be accurate. The VA will send you a letter and it will be accurate and it's also on the VA partial... All this information is..... What I wanted to see what the tracking of medical information for the exams and for the veterans records.... That fails also... It's a text block that you must just keep adding to like a word document. You can't even add a scan or pic of your dr notes. When you ask to have your info emailed to you it just produces a email with a pasted text from the blocks you inputed. What it should do is produce a pdf file in format similar to a EMR that doctors are use to..... It's is nothing more than a app that took free info and made an app with it and then added a basic input text field for notes... @$5 is not only a rip, it's a disgrace that it dupes Vets. The description of this product is deceiving and inaccurate in part.
Added new codes and new benefit dollar amounts for 2025. Updated for iOS 18.
Version 2.9
