Partly granted
The Board granted a disability rating of 60 percent for prostatitis and remanded the claims for service connection for diverticulitis, dermatitis, and GERD due to inadequate medical opinions.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the December 2023 rating decision that had already granted a 60 percent disability rating for prostatitis, which is the maximum rating under the diagnostic code. The remands were ordered because of inadequate medical opinions regarding the other claims.
