Parkinson’s Disease & VA Disability | All You Need To Know

Download MP3
Leah breaks down everything veterans need to know about Parkinson’s disease and VA disability, with a clear focus on ratings, connection, and benefits. She explains how Parkinson’s disease can be service-connected through direct, presumptive, or secondary pathways—especially for those exposed to Agent Orange, burn pits, or toxic chemicals during military service. Leah covers how the VA rates Parkinson’s (starting at 30% but often much higher when all symptoms are considered), what documentation is required to build a strong connection to service, and the wide range of benefits available—from monthly compensation to caregiver support, adaptive housing grants, and priority healthcare.
