Which 38 CFR diagnostic code does the VA use for Hyperinfection syndrome or disseminated strongyloidiasis?
The VA rates Hyperinfection syndrome or disseminated strongyloidiasis under Diagnostic Code (DC) 6325, governed by 38 CFR 38 CFR § 4.88b. The diagnostic code establishes the specific rating tiers and severity criteria the VA examiner applies.

What evidence supports a higher rating for Hyperinfection syndrome or disseminated strongyloidiasis?
The key evidence for Hyperinfection syndrome or disseminated strongyloidiasis is documentation of how the condition affects daily functioning. Treatment records showing worsening symptoms, functional limitations documented by your provider, and buddy statements describing observable impact on daily life all strengthen the claim. A nexus letter from a qualified medical professional linking the current severity to service is essential for contested claims.
What happens at the C&P exam for Hyperinfection syndrome or disseminated strongyloidiasis?
The C&P examiner uses a Infectious Diseases DBQ and evaluates your condition against the DC 6325 rating criteria. The examiner documents symptom frequency, severity, and functional impact. Bring all treatment records and describe your worst days, not your best — the VA rates on the full clinical picture across time, not a snapshot of one good day.
