Preliminary questions [7411]
the veteran has consumed a total of at least one kilogram of phenacetin in phenacetin-containing analgesics at some time. the veteran's consumption of a total of at least one kilogram of phenacetin in phenacetin-containing analgesics was materially contributed to by treatment of an illness or injury which is identifiable.7537 — the veteran has established the causal connection between accumulated phenacetic consumption and VEA service for the clinical onset of analgesic nephropathy.
7540 — the veteran has established the causal connection between accumulated phenacetic consumption and operational service for the clinical onset of analgesic nephropathy.
or
7541 — the veteran has established the causal connection between accumulated phenacetic consumption and eligible service for the clinical onset of analgesic nephropathy.
Clinical onset and operational service [7540]
the identified illness or injury made a material contribution to the veteran's consumption of a total of at least one kilogram of phenacetin in phenacetin-containing analgesics before the clinical onset of analgesic nephropathy.39132 — the identified illness or injury, which made a material contribution to the veteran's consumption of phenacetin in phenacetin-containing analgesics, is causally related to operational service.
Clinical onset and eligible service [7541]
the identified illness or injury made a material contribution to the veteran's consumption of a total of at least two kilograms of phenacetin in phenacetin-containing analgesics. the identified illness or injury made a material contribution to the veteran's consumption of a total of at least two kilograms of phenacetin in phenacetin-containing analgesics before the clinical onset of analgesic nephropathy.39133 — the identified illness or injury, which made a material contribution to the veteran's consumption of phenacetin in phenacetin-containing analgesics, is causally related to eligible service.
