The VA has made it easier for veterans to get benefits for certain cancers by adding them to the list of presumptive service-connected conditions. These include acute and chronic leukemias, multiple myelomas, myelodysplastic syndromes, myelofibrosis, and urinary bladder, ureter, and related genitourinary cancers.
The presumptions for urinary and genitourinary cancers started on Jan. 2, 2025, and for the other cancers, they’ll kick in on Jan. 10, 2025.
