Grizz, VA medical coverage for 5 years following discharge for all SM's. If a claim percentage is awarded, VA for life with the priority system in effect....1 being the highest. Now, that is just for the SM. If TDRL/PDRL then tricare in effect which gives the family benefits.

He will continue to drill as normal. The MEB process will take some time (1 to 2 years) the TDRL for up to 5 years. He will not lose anything and hopefully he will be rated above 30%. It is a "win-win" situation for medicals benefits over 30%. It is a long process...patience and knowledge is...

I have been reading and came across the pre-stabilizatio discussion... Jason's response on this thread answered a a part of my question(s) "I have seen it happen many times. I have also seen many times where the member was separated with less than 30%. It all depends on the facts of the case...

Yes understood. Looking at a TDRL Lawyer to employ...not sure to do so now or take a "wait and see" approach based on the move that the DOA takes with the TDRL Re-exam results/decision. Anyways, told it will cost in the 10-15k ballpark upfront for a tdrl lawyer. My goal is to keep the TDRL...
