Devils, so someone just told me that if I'm rated over 60% service connected I can go into the VA for free for any illness that is not service connected. Is there any truth to this? Also they said any prescription would also be waived. I'm pretty new to all this VA medical benefits stuff. I didn't bother researching it before because I was only 20% SC. Now I'm 70% SC and I'm finding out its a whole new playing field. I would appreciate any advice on any benefits that I am entitled to at my current level.

Thanks and S/F

Yes after 50 % there is no co pay on medications and you can also get treatment for non service connected issues. Congratulations on getting what you deserve for your services Marine!
