There's no average DVA payout for erectile dysfunction. DVA can accept it as a service-related condition, most often as a secondary condition caused by another accepted condition, and any compensation then depends on your permanent impairment assessment.
Is there an average DVA payout for erectile dysfunction?
Two veterans with the same diagnosis can receive very different amounts. DVA combines the impairment from all your accepted conditions into a rating from 0 to 100 points, adds a lifestyle rating from 0 to 7, and applies the compensation factor for your type of service. Earlier compensation is taken into account, and a lump sum also depends on your age. Someone else's erectile dysfunction payout doesn't predict yours.
How much the payout can be
| Impairment points | Weekly rate, warlike or non-warlike service | Weekly rate, peacetime service |
|---|---|---|
| 30 | $138.69 | $77.40 |
| 20 | $99.32 | $55.48 |
| 10 | $49.66 | $27.74 |
These are DVA's published MRCA rates from 1 July 2026, using the higher expected compensation factor for each level. Your lifestyle rating can move the amount up or down. See the full impairment points table.
Erectile dysfunction as a secondary condition
From 1 July 2026, presumptive liability treats erectile dysfunction as service-related if depressive disorder, diabetes mellitus or hypertension is an accepted condition present when it begins. You don't need to prove the link in that case.
If that doesn't apply, DVA assesses the claim against the Statements of Principles, which list the known causes, such as certain other conditions and medicines. A claim still needs a diagnosis and is lodged in MyService.
