Denied
The Board denied a rating in excess of 40 percent for voiding dysfunction and bladder neck obstruction, status-post prostatectomy as a matter of law. The claim was also remanded to address the service connection for a right hip disorder.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the severance of service connection effective May 1, 2023, which precluded any retroactive increase in the disability rating.
