Granted
The Board granted an initial disability evaluation of 40 percent for the Veteran's service-connected residuals of prostate cancer, status post prostatectomy.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's voiding dysfunction required him to change absorbent materials two to four times per day, which met the criteria for a 40 percent rating under Diagnostic Code 7528.
