Common questions about 10% for Hyperparathyroidism

How much does a 10% VA rating for Hyperparathyroidism pay?

A single veteran rated 10% for Hyperparathyroidism receives $180.42 per month ($2,165.04/year) under the 2026 VA rates, effective December 1, 2025. VA disability compensation is tax-free. With a spouse and one child, the monthly amount is $180.42.

What does it take to get a 10% rating for Hyperparathyroidism?

"Symptoms such as fatigue, anorexia, nausea, or constipation that occur despite surgery; or in individuals who are not candidates for surgery but require continuous medication for control."

What's the difference between 10% and 60% for Hyperparathyroidism?

10%: Symptoms persisting after surgery, or controlled only by continuous medication when surgery is not an option 60%: Hypercalcemia by lab value, or reduced kidney clearance, low bone density or a past fragility fracture

Can a secondary condition raise my rating above 10%?

Yes. If a condition like Fractures is service-connected as secondary to Hyperparathyroidism, the VA combines both ratings using the official combined-ratings formula (38 CFR 4.25), which can produce a combined rating higher than 10% alone.
