The VA benefits body map

Battle Buddy is an interactive body map at buddy.militarybenefitsclub.com. Tap the region you're rated on, pick your rating, and see the VA benefits tied to that disability. Instead of scrolling a wall of text organized by acronym, you navigate by where the injury actually is.

Every card is tied to a self-selected rating (0% to 100% in 10-point steps — eleven steps) and cited to VA.gov, the Code of Federal Regulations, or the U.S. Code, with the date it was verified. Same sourcing discipline as the rest of Military Benefits Club. It's built by the same team as this site, on a separate codebase, and it is not affiliated with the VA or DoD.

Jump straight to a region

Whole-body mode holds the benefits that aren't tied to one region — clothing allowance, HISA and housing grants, vehicle adaptive equipment, the service-dog veterinary benefit, and Special Monthly Compensation.

Why a body map instead of another benefits list

Every card is cited, not just claimed

Each benefit is traced to a primary source — VA.gov, the applicable 38 CFR section, or 38 U.S.C. — with the date it was last verified, so you can check it yourself instead of taking a benefits app's word for it.

It's honest about "entitled" vs. "ask your provider"

Some benefits — clothing allowance, housing grants, Special Monthly Compensation — are unlocked at a rating or a specific loss. Others, like a CPAP machine for sleep apnea or therapeutic footwear, are furnished through VA health care on your provider's clinical judgment, not because of a rating percentage. Battle Buddy keeps those two categories visually separate instead of blurring them into one "you qualify" list.

Looking for how many you get, what it costs, or the TRICARE side? The body map stays VA-only and never quotes a quantity or a price. Those live in the covered-items guide: one row per item with a VA column and a TRICARE column, each quoted from the payer's own rule, plus the sentence to say at your appointment.
What this is (and isn't): Battle Buddy is an informational tool, not a claims service and not an eligibility determination. Items tagged "Entitled" describe what the law and VA rules generally provide at a given rating or loss — not a guarantee for your specific case. Items tagged "Ask your provider" are furnished through VA health care based on clinical need, never automatically. Always confirm with the VA or an accredited Veterans Service Officer before counting on a benefit. This site is not affiliated with the VA or DoD.
