More than 24,000 veterans could have another chance at compensation for their traumatic brain injuries by the Department of Veterans Affairs.
The VA announced Wednesday it will offer new medical screenings for traumatic brain injury to veterans whose disability claims were initially denied because their exams were not conducted by specifically designated medical providers. As a result, some veterans who previously did not receive disability compensation between 2007 to 2015 may be eligible for their benefits now.
