Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claim for a rating higher than 70% for their other specified trauma disorder, stating that the evidence did not support total occupational and social impairment.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran's mental health condition was productive of occupational and social impairment with deficiencies in most areas, but did not meet the criteria for a 100 percent rating.
