Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for revision of a November 1, 2018, rating decision that assigned an effective date of April 26, 2018, for the grant of service connection for residuals of the fractured third digit of the right hand on the basis of clear and unmistakable error (CUE).
The deciding factor: The Board found no evidence establishing CUE in the November 2018 rating decision as the correct facts were before the adjudicator, and the outcome was not manifestly different.
