Partly granted
The Board denied an initial disability rating in excess of 10 percent for the service-connected ventricular tachycardia and granted an earlier effective date of August 10, 2022, but no earlier, for the assignment of the 10 percent disability rating for the service-connected sinusitis.
The deciding factor: The increase in disability as well as the claim for service connection were received within one year of August 10, 2022, i.e., the date of the change in law.
