Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claims for a temporary total disability rating (TTD) due to in-patient psychiatric treatment and residential substance abuse disorder treatment.
The deciding factor: The hospital stay was too short to qualify for a TTD, and the MH RTTP services were aimed at treating a non-service connected disability.
