Veterans - Hearing loss is one of the most common medical concerns veterans face. Active duty service members are exposed to various dangerous (and loud) settings and situations that lead to short-term and long-term auditory issues. They can qualify for VA disability benefits, with eligibility and ratings based on the connection between their military service and auditory conditions. Our mission is to assist veterans with the array of issues they may face, including obtaining proper disability compensation, financial and health assistance, information on the GI bill, and more. We have created some helpful guides and will continuously be adding more:
