Partly granted
The Board granted a 20 percent rating for the Veteran's right metatarsal fracture from September 11, 2024, but denied an initial rating greater than 10 percent prior to that date.
The deciding factor: The evidence supported moderately severe symptoms as of September 11, 2024, warranting a 20 percent rating, while the Veteran's symptoms were only moderate before that date, not meeting criteria for a higher initial rating.
