Question
redlegE4
According to
§ 4.29 Ratings for service-connected disabilities requiring hospital treatment or observation.
If a service member was hospitalized for 21 days or more that service member is automatically grated 100% upon applying.
My father was medically discharged from the Army in June of 1978. During his service he was admitted to United States Army Hospital, Ft. Hood, TX for just under 3 months. When he applied for VA compensation he was given 10% from VA and he has 50% from the Army. He suffers from Schizophrenia, paranoid type, and he is getting worse, so I was going to help him file an increase. That is when I found his records state he was in the hospital for 3 month.
If he is eligible for a CUE how should we proceed? Should we file for an increase first then a CUE?
Thanks,
Ruben
