Closed Create system for injured veterans to apply for disability benefits

Closed on

We think veterans injured on active duty should not be passed to civilian benefit system to be dealt with, and there should be a special system for injured veterans to apply for disability benefits.

We think the journey to obtain civilian health assessment and benefits can be a gruelling affair. We think that military and civilian medical assessments can contradict each other, which could create an environment of misinformation and confusion.
