Denied
The Board denied an initial rating in excess of 30 percent for dermatitis as the Veteran's condition did not meet the criteria for a higher rating.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's dermatitis was manifested by characteristic lesions affecting no more than 40 percent of his total or exposed body area and did not require constant or near-constant systemic therapy.
