Granted
The Board granted restoration of a 100 percent disability rating for prostate cancer and the discontinuance of special monthly compensation for statutory housebound status, both deemed improper by the June 2024 rating decision.
The deciding factor: The evidence consistently showed active malignancy or ongoing treatment for prostate cancer, preventing the reduction in rating as per Diagnostic Code 7528 requirements.
