I'm received compensation (70% for PTSD since 2011). I had an appeal for back condition that was just awarded (March 2016) 20% DDD and 10% secondary radiculopathy Lle effective date March 2013.
My question: do I get back pay at 30% for new SC or just 10% (the difference between 70 and 80%) 80% is the new combined rate?
Also, I had been fighting my back condition since my discharge in 1993. I filled within a year of discharge but finally got the SC. Can I get effective date to my date of discharge? If so, how?
Thank you in advance for your help.
