Partly granted
The Board granted a 30 percent rating for GERD from February 11, 2020, but denied an initial rating in excess of 10 percent prior to that date. The claim for an increased rating for residuals of a traumatic brain injury with memory loss was remanded.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's symptoms met the criteria for a 30 percent rating from February 11, 2020, but did not meet the criteria for a higher rating prior to that date.
