<h4>
(Optional): Apply to the Physical Disability Board of Review (PDBR)
</h4>
<p>
If you believe your disability rating for TBI, PTSD, or mental health
conditions is too low, consider applying to the Physical Disability
Board of Review (PDBR). The DoD created the PDBR specifically to
review appeals about low disability ratings for Veterans discharged
between 2001 and 2009. Some Veterans discharged during this period of
time received lower disability ratings than they deserved, especially
if they suffered from TBI, PTSD, or other mental health conditions. If
you were discharged during this period of time and previously received
a disability rating of 20% or lower, you’re eligible to apply to the
PDBR for review. The PDBR does not issue discharge upgrades and cannot
review conditions not listed in your military record before your
separation. But, if the PDBR finds that your disability rating was
unjustly low, it may help you make your case to upgrade your
discharge.{' '}
