Partly granted
The Veteran was granted a temporary rating of 100 percent for his heart disability from March 1, 2021 to June 1, 2021, but the claim for an increased rating in excess of 60 percent prior to and after this period was denied.
The deciding factor: The evidence supported a temporary 100 percent rating due to a myocardial infarction on March 1, 2021, but did not show that the Veteran's heart disability warranted a higher rating at other times.
