from H&P Disability Direct - Live Answers on the Road to VA Compensation · host Hill and Ponton

The Department of Veterans Affairs offers Special Monthly Compensation (SMC) for these scenarios. Unlike regular disability benefits which cover reduced earning capacity, SMC addresses non-economic impacts like personal inconvenience and social challenges, offering a rate beyond the standard 100%.
