Why does VA Claims Insider exist?
We believe many Veterans are stuck, frustrated, and underrated by the VA. Our purpose is to help underrated Veterans get the VA benefits they legally, morally, ethically, and medically deserve by law. We are INSIDERS!
How does VA Claims Insider work?
Our education-based membership programs include access and permission to use our proprietary resources, which includes reduced rates to our preferred provider network for medical examinations, disability evaluations, and credible VA Nexus Letters (Independent Medical Opinions) for a wide range of disability conditions. We serve Veterans *LIVE* 24/7/365 and in-community, in a “Done With You” Mastermind concept with fellow disabled Veterans from around the world.
What is VA Claims Insider?
VA Claims Insider is an education-based Coaching company for disabled Veterans exploring eligibility for increased VA disability benefits and who wish to learn more about that process. The VA claim process can be confusing to many Veterans, so we decided to make it easy! We’re an ever-growing team of more than 300 fellow disabled Veterans and military supporters, and we exist to help YOU.
How much does VA Claims Insider cost?
Instead of charging Veterans thousands of dollars to access our proprietary resources up-front, we decided to make these resources FREELY available to those who join our membership programs, and you only pay AFTER you win your VA disability claim AND get a higher VA rating. If you don’t win your claim and get a higher rating, you don’t owe us a penny. If you do win and get a higher rating, our standard fee is six times (6x) the monthly increase. For example, if your VA rating before utilizing our services is 50% at $1,000 per month, and your rating after utilizing our services is 90% at $2,000 per month, your membership fee would be 6x the monthly increase, or ($2,000-$1,000) = ($1,000 x 6) = $6,000. In this example, if the lump sum option is selected, the total owed would be $6,000-$600 (10% discount) = $5,400. You can also choose our no interest monthly payment plan, which in this example, would be $500 per month for 12 months at no interest.
Does VA Claims Insider work?
While we can’t offer any guarantees that your VA claim will be successful (we’re not the VA and don’t make the final decision), we are 100% committed to serving veterans. With our Elite Membership program, you'll be connected with a Veteran Coach who will guide you through our proven 8-step process & our proprietary "SEM Method". Thus, you have a VERY good chance of winning your VA claim and getting the rating you deserve by law.
How do I attend coaching sessions?
Presently, we offer more than 68 different expert-level virtual education classes per month, and VA Claims Insider Elite members are free to join and learn with our Veteran Coaches (VCs) as much as you’d like. You’ll get access to the VA Claims Insider Coaching Calendar to search, find, book, and attend *LIVE* and on-demand coaching sessions with us and fellow Veterans over Zoom (group video calls). Anytime. Anywhere.
