The veteran's claim for an increased rating for her stress fracture of the right inferior pubic ramus with right hip impairment has been granted, and she is currently receiving a 20 percent evaluation. The effective date remains pending as it was not specified in the decision.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not reveal any clinical pathology to support a higher rating than the current 20 percent assigned for her service-connected stress fracture of the right inferior pubic ramus with right hip impairment.
