Partly granted
The Board granted a rating of 30 percent for GERD with IBS and separate ratings of 10 percent for GERD and 30 percent for IBS from March 19, 2024.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's symptoms of severe IBS and GERD were consistent throughout the appeal period, warranting a 30 percent rating for IBS and a 10 percent rating for GERD. The Board remanded an increased rating claim for GERD from March 19, 2024.
