Military Sexual Trauma VA Disability Rating is rated by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs under DC 9411 of 38 C.F.R. § 4.130 across 5 severity tiers (100% -- Total occupational and social impairment / 70% -- Deficiencies in most areas / 50% -- Reduced reliability and productivity / 30% -- Occasional decrease in work efficiency / 10% -- Mild or transient symptoms). 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.
MST-related PTSD is rated under DC 9411 using the same General Rating Formula as other mental health conditions. Special evidentiary rules under 38 C.F.R. 3.304(f)(5) allow alternative evidence sources including behavioral changes, STI testing, counseling records, and buddy statements.
Military Sexual Trauma (DC 9411) is evaluated under 38 C.F.R. § 4.130 using the mental health rating framework. Because it is rated by analogy to the general schedule, the 5 levels below describe the body-system criteria the VA applies — the percentage assigned to Military Sexual Trauma depends on the specific findings (range of motion, frequency, severity, or functional loss) documented at the C&P exam and in the medical record.
