The Board granted a disability rating of 70 percent for PTSD with unspecified mild neurocognitive disorder and TBI, as well as a total disability rating based on individual unemployability.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's service-connected PTSD with unspecified mild neurocognitive disorder and TBI was found to cause occupational and social impairment with deficiencies in most areas, which warranted the 70 percent rating. Additionally, it was determined that the condition rendered him unable to secure or follow substantially gainful employment, justifying a total disability rating based on individual unemployability.
