Partly granted
The Board granted a 10 percent rating for the Veteran's back disability from October 14, 2014 to January 3, 2015 and denied higher ratings at other times. The Board also granted separate 10 percent ratings for right and left lower extremity radiculopathy.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the evidence of record and the application of the rating criteria, including consideration of pain and functional loss during flare-ups and with repeated use.
