# Uterus Removal (Hysterectomy) — VA Disability Rating

**Diagnostic Code 7618 · 38 CFR § 4.116**
*Body System: Gynecological Conditions and Disorders of the Breast*

## Understanding This Condition

Diagnostic Code 7618 covers the **removal of the uterus, including the corpus** (the main body of the uterus). This is the rating category the VA uses when evaluating disability related to a hysterectomy involving removal of the uterus and corpus.

## Available Rating Levels

The VA assigns a disability rating under this code based on how much time has passed since the removal:

| Rating | Criteria |
|--------|----------|
| **100%** | For three months after removal |
| **30%** | Thereafter |

Under this schedule, a **100% rating applies for the three-month period following the removal**. After that period, the rating is set at **30%**.

## What the VA Looks For

When rating under Diagnostic Code 7618, the VA looks at:

- **Whether the uterus, including the corpus, has been removed.**
- **The timing relative to the removal** — the first three months after removal are rated at 100%, and the period thereafter is rated at 30%.
