Denied
The Board denied an initial rating greater than 30 percent for the Veteran's acquired psychiatric disorder, finding that the severity of his symptoms more closely resembled those associated with a 30 percent rating.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not show occupational and social impairment with reduced reliability and productivity as required for a higher rating.
