Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claims for a disability rating in excess of 10 percent for right knee patellofemoral chondromalacia and strain, and radiculopathy left lower extremity from June 20, 2023.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a finding that the Veteran's conditions warranted a higher disability rating than the currently assigned 10 percent under the applicable diagnostic codes.
