Partly granted
The Board granted a 100 percent disability rating for PTSD and remanded the claim for service connection for hepatitis C.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's symptoms of PTSD are severe enough to warrant a 100 percent rating, as they result in total occupational and social impairment. The Board also found that there was reasonable doubt regarding the etiology of his hepatitis C, necessitating further evidence through an addendum opinion.
