Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for a higher rating in excess of 10 percent for left hip degenerative arthritis, as there was no basis to award a higher rating under the applicable diagnostic codes.
The deciding factor: The limitation in extension did not meet the criteria for a higher rating, and other potential diagnostic codes also did not support an increased rating.
