Evaluation of right AC separation with arthritis and impingement syndrome(previously under DC 5203), which is currently 20 percent disabling, is continued.
Evaluation rt Ac separation with and impingement syndrome, which is currently evaluated 20 percent disabling, is continued from may 2015
A separate 10 percent evaluation is assigned for right clavicle deformity effective may 2015.
The separate 20 and 10 percent evaluation assigned for your right shoulder disability rating is combined to a 30 percent disability for your right shoulder and constitute a full grant of benefits sought on appeal.
Your overall or combined rating is 50 percent We do not add the individual percentages of each condition to determine your combined rating.
As of 2012 I was 30 percent for my right shoulder and july of 2015 they decided to take 10 percent from my right shoulder. Which is in appeal.
My belief is that my right shoulder should be 40 percent and the left shoulder 20 percent
They clearly took 10 percent from my rt shoulder to prevent the right shoulder from having a 40 percent evaluation On it’s own .
And prevent and application for a claim of 100 percent. Based on one disability being at least 40 percent disabling.
I feel that because I won my appeal from 2012 and my right shoulder was at that time 30 percent disabling
That should be able to apply for 100 percent disability.
