Additional Limitation Of Motion Rating
mrkus427 posted a question in Veterans Compensation & Pension Exams
At my QTC Medical Evaluation, my right hip range of motion is limited to 50 degrees flexion. In the notes following the range of motion table, the doctor wrote additional limitations after repetitive use, and stated "The above additionally limit the joint function by 15 degrees." My question is, how does the VA use that 'additional limitation' statement? With the ROM measured at 50 in flexion, I have no % rating. Flexion needs to be 20-40, if I read the CFR 38 correctly.
