Smc O / P

[grent]

WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF A VET 100% P AND T SCHEDULER FILES FOR ED EYE ARM CERVICAL LUMBAR WOULD IT BE POSSIBLE FOR THAT VET RECEIVE SMC O / P AND BEYONG TO SMC R1 OR R2 PLUS SOME K AWARDS

If the ED is SC'd, SMC "K" would apply. The rest depends on what is awarded, and at what percentage. Basically, the simplest "combined rating" to look at would be a single 100% rating, then other ratings not contained in the 100% that add with "normal math" to 60% or more.

"Lo-Ball" ratings for conditions are not uncommon. The vet may end up getting or needing to apply for "TDIU", if the VA's ratings are lower than 100%.

Anything is possible with the va .. but to be reasonable.... the max rating for and eye is 30% unless blind, and that only gets an smc of K, and would be based on how good the other eye is...... it would be almost impossible to get a rating of 60% for the lumbar spine because of the requirement of bed rest prescribed by a doctor for at least 6 weeks..which most doctors won't prescribe.... or Unfavorable ankylosis of the entire spine....

Based on what I know about smc's it would require loss of or loss of use of limbs to get beyond SMC L 1/2......
