Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claims for increased ratings for his right hip conditions, finding that the current disability levels did not warrant higher ratings.
The deciding factor: The evidence of record did not support a higher rating as the Veteran's range of motion and functional impairment did not meet the criteria for a higher rating under applicable diagnostic codes.
