Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for an increased rating in excess of 30 percent for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) as the severity, frequency, and duration of the Veteran's PTSD symptoms did not more closely approximate occupational and social impairment with reduced reliability and productivity.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's PTSD symptoms were found to be consistent with a 30 percent rating, and there was no evidence that they warranted a higher rating.
