Question
Paulette Salisbury
My husband has a 60% service connected rating for Prostate cancer (post prostatectomy) It was 100% then VA reduced it to 60% after cancerous tumors were removed in a radical prostatectomy. He filed for Urinary Incontinence as Secondary to treatment for Prostate Cancer following the reductiuon decision letter dated Jan, 2019. We have not gotten a decision on that claim. In addition, he filed for Penile deformity with loss of erectile power as Secondary to treatment for Prostate Cancer with no decision being issued. On the same form, Bilateral Hearing Loss Increase was also filed. That disability has been denied as not being service connected. All 3 conditions were filed on the same form 21-526EZ by VSO, AMETS. within the year deadline on Jan. 9, 2020.
I am under the impression that he should be entitled to an additional individual rating of 60% for Urinary Incontinence, DC 7527, and an additional 20% rating for Penile Deformity DC 7522. How can we get the VA to recognize these two additional disabilities and issue the appropriate decision letter? That would bring his schedular rating up to or over 100%.
Any advice you can offer would be greatly appreciated.
