Last reviewed for CCPS 16 December 2009.
Preliminary questions [40673]
40692 there is some evidence that tropical pulmonary eosinophilia may be a factor in the development or worsening of the condition under consideration.
40790 the veteran has had tropical pulmonary eosinophilia at some time.
40791 — the veteran has established the causal connection between tropical pulmonary eosinophilia and VEA service for fibrosing interstitial lung disease.
40798 the veteran had tropical pulmonary eosinophilia for at least the six months before the clinical onset of fibrosing interstitial lung disease.
40792 — the veteran has established the causal connection between tropical pulmonary eosinophilia and VEA service for the clinical onset of fibrosing interstitial lung disease.
40794 — the veteran has established the causal connection between tropical pulmonary eosinophilia and operational service for the clinical onset of fibrosing interstitial lung disease.
or
40795 — the veteran has established the causal connection between tropical pulmonary eosinophilia and eligible service for the clinical onset of fibrosing interstitial lung disease.
or
the clinical onset of the condition under consideration occurred after the end of the veteran's last period of VEA service. the condition under consideration permanently worsened. the veteran had tropical pulmonary eosinophilia after the clinical onset and for at least the six months before the clinical worsening of fibrosing interstitial lung disease.40793 — the veteran has established the causal connection between tropical pulmonary eosinophilia and VEA service for the clinical worsening of fibrosing interstitial lung disease.
40796 — the veteran has established the causal connection between tropical pulmonary eosinophilia and operational service for the clinical worsening of fibrosing interstitial lung disease.
or
40797 — the veteran has established the causal connection between tropical pulmonary eosinophilia and eligible service for the clinical worsening of fibrosing interstitial lung disease.
Clinical onset and operational service [40794]
40800 — the veteran's tropical pulmonary eosinophilia is causally related to operational service.
Clinical onset and eligible service [40795]
40801 — the veteran's tropical pulmonary eosinophilia is causally related to eligible service.
Clinical worsening and operational service [40796]
40800 — the veteran's tropical pulmonary eosinophilia is causally related to operational service.
the clinical onset of the condition under consideration occurred prior to that part of operational service to which the veteran's tropical pulmonary eosinophilia is causally related.Clinical worsening and eligible service [40797]
40801 — the veteran's tropical pulmonary eosinophilia is causally related to eligible service.
the clinical onset of the condition under consideration occurred prior to that part of eligible service to which the veteran's tropical pulmonary eosinophilia is causally related.
