Partly granted
The Board granted a rating of 30 percent, but no higher, for GERD as of July 29, 2021, and denied an initial rating in excess of 10 percent for the same condition.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's GERD symptoms prior to July 29, 2021, did not meet the criteria for a higher rating, but as of that date, his symptoms were productive of considerable impairment of health, warranting a 30 percent rating.
