Partly granted
The Board granted initial compensable evaluations for hemorrhoids and right hip conditions, but denied service connection for a gastrointestinal condition.
The deciding factor: The evidence supported the Veteran's claims for increased ratings for his hemorrhoids and right hip conditions, while not supporting a diagnosis of a current gastrointestinal condition during the appeal period.
