Good Afternoon Everyone,
I am currently going through a MEB for my Right Shoulder. I have yet to find anyone that can answer my question so far in regards to a rating from the VA. I had a SLAP Tear in my right shoulder which was surgically repaired, but my pain and reduced range of motion is contributed to that diagnosis. In addition, I also fractured my right clavicle, which never healed correctly and I have malunion of the clavicle.
I already completed my C&P Exam, and I know I will receive 20% for limited range of motion of my right arm which is from my SLAP Tear. However, a clavicle malunion is rated 10% and is a separate condition. These were both "referred" conditions for my MEB separate from each other. So overall, I am not sure if these two will be separate ratings or will my shoulder be combined to only 20%? I would appreciate any and all input from anyone who may have more insight on the shoulder.
Thank You!
