Veterans who have a legacy appeal pending with the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) have an opportunity to opt in to the modernized decision review program. The new process provides more options and a faster decision without changing their date of claim.

Veterans who participate in RAMP can choose to have their VA decision reviewed in either the Supplemental Claim or Higher-Level Review lanes that were created under the new law.

In just a year, over 57,000 Veterans have participated in RAMP and over $106 million in retroactive awards have been paid within an average of 114.5 days—far quicker than in the current appeals process allows.

On Nov. 1, VA launched the Rapid Appeals Modernization Program with the goal of providing eligible Veterans with the earliest possible resolution of their disagreement with VA.
