GrantedPACT Act
The Board granted an earlier effective date of August 10, 2022 for the grant of service connection for prostate cancer based on the Veteran's ongoing care and evidence that he had prostate cancer as early as 2018.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the evidence showing entitlement to service connection arose in 2018 and the Veteran filed his claim within one year of the PACT Act's effective date, warranting an earlier effective date under the law.
