Those who receive U.S. Dept. of Veterans Affairs (VA)
disability compensation or VA pensions are reminded that if
their disabilities worsen, they may be eligible for a higher rate
of benefit payments.
For veterans who receive compensation for service-
connected disabilities, if the service-connected conditions
worsens, they can request a re-evaluation by the VA.
Depending on the results, the disability rating for that
condition could be increased, entitling them to higher benefit
payments.
Veterans receiving nonservice-connected pensions may
be eligible for additional benefits if they become permanently
housebound or require the regular aid and attendance of an-
other person.
For more information about eligibility for benefits, Ore-
gon VA can be contacted at (800) 296-9666.
