- VA documentation that a veteran can provide that meets the requirement for medical documentation is the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Disability Breakdown Letter that lists the individual’s service-connected:
- Percentage (%)
- Disability
- Diagnosis Code
- Combined Rating
- Veterans can obtain a VA Disability Breakdown Letter by calling the VA Benefits Assistance Service hotline at (800) 827-1000. When prompted, either say “Request Letter” or select option 9, then say “Yes”. The automated system will initially prompt the veteran to enter his/her social security number, date of birth (MM/DD/YYYY format) and branch of service (select 1-Army; 2-Marine Corps; 3-Navy; 4-Air Force; or 5-Coast Guard). A VA representative will answer the call, confirm the veteran’s identity, and determine the preferred method for receiving the letter: mail, email, or fax.
- Please allow 7-10 days for mail delivery.
- Emails should be received within 5-10 minutes after the call. Please be sure to check your spam or other non-primary mailboxes for a protected message from: NCCNOREPLY, StLouis, VBASTL / [email protected], Subject: Requested Documents from VA – Secure. Click the blue Read the message button within this email and you will then be prompted/asked to sign in with Google or with a one-time passcode. When you are signed in successfully, a new window will appear with the letter attached. You must save the letter immediately because the message/letter will be deleted after 15 minutes.
- Other accepted VA documentation that a veteran can provide that meets the AbilityOne Commission policies 51.407 and 51.408 requirement for medical documentation includes any VA record that certifies the veteran has a diagnosed medical condition. For example, the VA sends a service-connected disability compensation ratings decision letter to the veteran explaining the final decision on a veteran’s disability compensation claim.
This expansion of care will help prevent Veteran suicide by guaranteeing no cost, world-class care to Veterans in times of crisis. It will also increase access to acute suicide care for up to 9 million Veterans who are not currently enrolled in VA.
