13. When I first signed up with the VA, the intake unit also sent me to the local DAV to file a claim.

If your vet has hearing loss from BOOMS he'll get at least a 10% disability. Which means ALL VA care is covered in full.

Depending on your medical insurance, you can save a shitload of money if a procedure costs you more than the cost of a doctor's visit.
