VA Disability Rating Calculator

Calculate your combined VA disability rating using the official VA Math formula. This calculator uses the exact same "whole person" method the VA uses.

How VA Math Works

The VA doesn't add ratings together. Instead, each rating is applied to your remaining "healthy" percentage:

Example: 50% + 30% = 65% (not 80%)
50% disabled leaves 50% healthy
30% of remaining 50% = 15%
Total: 50% + 15% = 65% → rounds to 70%
