If your veteran has asbestos lung cancer rather than mesothelioma
Asbestos exposure causes both. US military veterans with documented exposure can receive VA disability compensation and pursue asbestos trust fund claims for either diagnosis. We have a dedicated track for asbestos lung cancer in veterans:
- Asbestos lung cancer in veterans — VA service connection (including for veterans with smoking history), 100 percent rating, monthly compensation, and trust fund eligibility.
- Asbestos lung cancer vs mesothelioma — side-by-side comparison: how the two cancers differ medically, in VA rating, in trust fund payouts, and in prognosis.
