Video Description

If you’re a veteran and have suffered a traumatic brain injury and have long-term effects, you may qualify for a TBI VA rating. Your TBI rating will be rated as either mild, moderate, or severe, depending on how long you were unconscious. The rating is determined by the long-term and chronic symptoms that you have. Veterans are affected by TBI differently; some veterans may suffer severe TBI and have no long-term symptoms, while others may suffer mild TBI but have severe long-term symptoms, such as headaches.
