Tela Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 A follow up to my earlier post: I opened my claim on 6/10/13 for Major Depressive Disorder secondary to bilateral knees and it was completed today. I received 50% for MDD in addition to the 30% for knees and awarded 60% overall. Shouldn't my combined rating be 70%? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Navy04 Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 Great news, glad to hear your claim has closed. I submitted my FDC in Sep 13, and I hope mine closes to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Computer Tech Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 Great News. 50% & 30% is 65% which should be rounded up to 70% Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 A 50% rating and a 30% rating equals 65 which is rounded up to 70%. A 50 % rating and a 20% and a 10% rating equals 64 which is rounded down to 60%. Also a 50% rating and three 10% ratings equals 64 which is still rounded down to 60%.
