LOADING
Functional Dyspepsia VA Disability Rating is rated by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs under DC 7399 of 38 C.F.R. § 4.114 across 3 severity tiers (40%+ -- Severe limitation or ankylosis / 20% -- Moderate limitation / 10% -- Mild limitation or painful motion). 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.
Functional dyspepsia is rated by analogy under the digestive system codes. Chronic upper abdominal discomfort, early satiety, and bloating. May be secondary to NSAIDs, stress, or H. pylori.
Functional Dyspepsia (DC 7399) is evaluated under 38 C.F.R. § 4.114 using the digestive 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 Functional Dyspepsia 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.
