Common questions
What percentages does the VA rating schedule list for Parasitic diseases otherwise not specified (DC 6320)?
38 CFR § 4.88b lists 100% for diagnostic code 6320. VA decides which line fits from the evidence. This page is not your rating.
Where do these words come from?

Does this page tell me what my rating will be?
No. It shows what the published rule book says. It does not predict a rating, a decision, or a dollar amount, and it does not say you have this condition.
Who can file a VA claim for me for free?
Accredited Veterans Service Officers (VSOs) can prepare and file a claim with you at no cost. VA lists accredited representatives on VA.gov. We do not file.
This page quotes the public VA rule book. It is not your rating and not your pay. We do not say you have this condition. We do not file. You, or a free accredited representative, file with VA.
