Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for an initial compensable rating for chronic kidney disease stage II as there was no evidence of a GFR score of 59 mL/min/1.73 m2 or lower for at least three consecutive months during any 12-month period on appeal.
The deciding factor: The November 2023 VA examiner noted that the Veteran's GFR did not meet the criteria for a compensable rating, and there was no evidence of regular routine dialysis or eligibility for a kidney transplant.
