Partly granted
The Board granted an increased rating of 70 percent for PTSD from April 5, 2023, but denied a higher rating.
The deciding factor: The evidence consistently reflects that the Veteran's PTSD has produced occupational impairment, but not total social and occupational impairment. However, it does warrant a 70 percent rating due to deficiencies in most areas including work, family relations, judgment, thinking, or mood.
