Veterans Affairs Canada (VAC) has undertaken a revision of the medical guidelines which have been used as a guide to awards of disability entitlement to eligible persons under the Pension Act, R.S.C. 1985, c.P-6, and other legislation.

Thirty-five Entitlement Eligibility Guidelines were implemented on May 1, 2002 addressing approximately 50 commonly claimed medical disabilities. Two additional Entitlement Eligibility Guidelines have been implemented on April 1, 2006. The Entitlement Eligibility Guidelines are now available for viewing. These Entitlement Eligibility Guidelines replaced portions of the Medical Guidelines publication. The only medical guidelines, within the current Medical Guideline publication, that are still in effect, are those guidelines for which there are no released EEGs.
