The Veteran's service-connected post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is granted a 100 percent disability rating, and special monthly compensation at the housebound rate is also granted.
The deciding factor: The evidence supports that the Veteran's PTSD symptoms result in total social and occupational impairment, warranting a 100 percent disability rating. Additionally, he has been substantially confined to his home due to his service-connected condition, qualifying for special monthly compensation at the housebound rate.
