Bladder Dysfunction VA Disability Rating is rated by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs under DC 7542 of 38 C.F.R. § 4.115a across 3 severity tiers (60% -- Absorbent materials changed >4x/day or appliance required / 40% -- Absorbent materials changed 2-4x/day / 20% -- Absorbent materials changed <2x/day). Service connection requires (1) a current diagnosis, (2) an in-service event, injury, or exposure, and (3) a medical nexus opinion linking the two under 38 C.F.R. § 3.303.
Neurogenic bladder (DC 7542) is rated under voiding dysfunction criteria. 20% for daytime voiding interval between one and two hours or awakening to void three to four times per night. 40% for requiring wearing of absorbent materials which must be changed two to four times per day.
Bladder Dysfunction (DC 7542) is evaluated under 38 C.F.R. § 4.115a using the genitourinary rating framework. Because it is rated by analogy to the general schedule, the 3 levels below describe the body-system criteria the VA applies — the percentage assigned to Bladder Dysfunction depends on the specific findings (range of motion, frequency, severity, or functional loss) documented at the C&P exam and in the medical record.
Rating criteria reference 38 C.F.R. Part 4 (Schedule for Rating Disabilities). This entry has not yet undergone editorial review against the live regulation text — consult the authoritative source directly before relying on the criteria shown.
