Deployment Related Conditions: A to Z Listing

http://www.pdhealth.mil/hcc/scc.asp

This Web page lists alphabetically deployment health conditions and issues and their policies and directives for the DoD, Joint Forces, Army, Air Force, Navy, and Marines; clinical guidance; fact sheets; research; and related links.

Veterans have the right to apply for VA compensation for any of the service-connected health conditions listed below. This listing is not all inclusive, but is very useful since many of these conditions are still being researched and some are not currently recognized by the VA as ratable disabilities (listed in the VA's Schedule of Disability Ratings, see Title 38, U.S. Code of Federal Regulations, Chapter 1, Part 4). The VA will award retroactive disability compensation payments to veterans (who have documented and applied for veteran health benefits from the VA and were awarded a zero percent disability rating) with a previously unrecognized service-connected disability.

For questions and support, contact a Veterans Service Organization.
