Turn your pill bottles into proof that wins. Right now, log into My HealtheVet, hit Blue Button, and download your VA Medication History/Refill Summary for the last 24 months. Export as PDF, highlight dosage increases, refills, and med changes (e.g., added a second BP med), and type a one-sentence cover note: "Shows continuous treatment since 2019 and escalation." Upload it to your claim on VA.gov under Supporting Evidence; add any private pharmacy printouts too. This nails chronicity, severity, and credibility without waiting on clinic notes.

About VA Claim Helper

VA Claim Helper is led by a U.S. Navy submariner (ET2/SS, USS Pittsburgh 1995–2005) translating VA law into plain-English claim strategy so veterans can document service connection, prep for C&P exams, and win ratings without guesswork.

We publish daily VA disability tips, evidence checklists, and field manuals that walk you from Intent to File through appeals. Every guide is battle-tested with the veteran community and refreshed when VA policy shifts so the intel stays mission ready.
