Granted
The Veteran is granted an additional month of a total disability rating for his right knee, concluding on November 1, 2024.
The deciding factor: The convalescence period was calculated incorrectly by the RO, and the Board corrected this error to grant the Veteran five months of a temporary total disability rating from May 1, 2024, to November 1, 2024.
