Veterans who experience leg or toe amputations due to service-related injuries are entitled to compensation through the VA disability rating system. Each level of amputation is assigned a specific percentage rating, which reflects the severity of the injury and its impact on the veteran’s life. In this video by Deck Plate we will understand the VA disability ratings for Leg, amputation of, With defective stump, thigh amputation recommended, Amputation not improvable by prosthesis controlled by natural knee action, At a lower level, permitting prosthesis, Forefoot, amputation proximal to metatarsal bones (more than one-half of metatarsal loss), Foot, loss of use of, Toes, all, amputation of, without metatarsal loss or transmetatarsal, amputation of, with up to half of metatarsal loss, Toe, great, amputation of, Toes, other than great, amputation of, with removal of metatarsal head, Toes, three or four, amputation of, without metatarsal involvement.
