Partly granted
The veteran's effective date for a 100% disability rating for coronary artery disease was granted as of March 20, 2013. The issue of entitlement to an earlier effective date for TDIU was dismissed as moot.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's claim was filed on March 20, 2013, and the Veteran's entitlement to a 100 percent disability rating arose on January 1, 1997, making March 20, 2013, the effective date.
