12. Since I am 100% service-connected disabled, the VA pays for everything.

I also get a letter from the VA whenever they pay a bill. The letter tells what the VA paid for, what they were charged, what they paid, and what I owe. Since I am 100% service-connected disabled, I always owe $0.00. I won't go into details, but the reason I am 100% service-connected disabled does not have anything to do with my being in the service. Even if I had never joined the army, I would still be 100% disabled. The only difference would be my wife and I and others would be living on $4518 a month instead of the $9226 we get including the 2023 COLA.
