I have a question about the Fenderson staged rating.
My VSO was able to show me what the VA initially rated my granted back issue at, of course they low balled me.
It states:
MECHANICAL BACK PAIN (PREVIUOSLY CLAIMED AS BACK CONDITION)
Service Connected, Gulf War, Incurred
Static Disability
10% from 06/18/2018, Deferred Evaluation
They also added RADICULOPATHY, SCIATIC NERVE, RIGHT LOWER EXTREMITY as secondary condition at 0% from 06/18/2018, Deferred Evaluation.
What is meant by Deferred Evaluation? Does it mean they need a new C&P medical opinion? Is the low rating a Fenderson staged rating?
My VSO was able to see this after my BVA grant and before the RO scheduled any of my C&P examines.
I have not received any of this from the RO only my VSO. Thanks in advance.
I'm hoping the Deferred evaluation means they just wanted a new C&P so they can change the initial rating (increase).
