Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claims for an initial compensable disability rating for erectile dysfunction and additional special monthly compensation (SMC) based on loss of use of a creative organ due to service-connected erectile dysfunction.
The deciding factor: The criteria for entitlement to an initial compensable disability rating for erectile dysfunction have not been met, as DC 7522 does not provide for a compensable rating. The Veteran is already receiving SMC (k) based on loss of use of a creative organ, and there is no legal basis for additional SMC.
