Partly granted
The Board granted a 60 percent evaluation for gastrointestinal conditions, but denied higher ratings and earlier effective dates.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support greater evaluations or earlier effective dates due to the lack of continuous pursuit of claims prior to March 2022.
