Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claim for a rating in excess of 30 percent for service-connected GERD because the evidence did not show severe impairment of health.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support symptoms of material weight loss, hematemesis, melena with moderate anemia, or other symptom combinations productive of severe impairment of health.
