Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for an initial rating more than 30 percent for asthma and chronic bronchitis, as the evidence did not support a higher rating.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's condition required only intermittent inhalational bronchodilator therapy and daily inhalational bronchodilator therapy, which did not meet the criteria for a higher rating under Diagnostic Code 6602.
