Medical Report - Inability to Obtain Appropriate Clinical Management - [GQACM]
Preliminary questions [9642]
there is some evidence that an inability to obtain appropriate clinical management for aortic disease may be a factor in the worsening of the condition under consideration.7334 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 was unable to obtain appropriate clinical management for the condition under consideration at some time.9678 the inability to obtain appropriate clinical management for aortic disease contributed to the clinical worsening of the condition under consideration.
9680 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the inability to obtain appropriate clinical management for the condition under consideration, an aortic disease, and VEA service for the clinical worsening of aortic disease.
9681 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the inability to obtain appropriate clinical management for the condition under consideration, an aortic disease, and operational service for the clinical worsening of aortic disease.
or
9682 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the inability to obtain appropriate clinical management for the condition under consideration, an aortic disease, and eligible service for the clinical worsening of aortic disease.
Clinical worsening and operational service [9681]
the veteran was unable to obtain appropriate clinical management for aortic disease, which contributed to the clinical worsening of the condition under consideration, during operational service. the veteran was unable to obtain appropriate clinical management for aortic disease, which contributed to the clinical worsening of the condition under consideration, during operational service, as a causal result of operational service duties. the veteran's inability to obtain appropriate clinical management for the condition under consideration during operational service was due to the veteran's serious default, wilful act or serious breach of discipline.or
the veteran was unable to obtain appropriate clinical management for aortic disease, which contributed to the clinical worsening of the condition under consideration, because of an illness or injury which is identifiable.9689 — the identified illness or injury which prevented the veteran from obtaining appropriate clinical management for aortic disease 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 identified illness or injury that prevented the veteran from obtaining appropriate clinical management for aortic disease is causally related.Clinical worsening and eligible service [9682]
the veteran was unable to obtain appropriate clinical management for aortic disease, which contributed to the clinical worsening of the condition under consideration, during eligible service. the veteran was unable to obtain appropriate clinical management for aortic disease, which contributed to the clinical worsening of the condition under consideration, during eligible service, as a causal result of eligible service duties. the veteran's inability to obtain appropriate clinical management for the condition under consideration during eligible service was due to the veteran's serious default, wilful act or serious breach of discipline.or
the veteran was unable to obtain appropriate clinical management for aortic disease, which contributed to the clinical worsening of the condition under consideration, because of an illness or injury which is identifiable.9690 — the identified illness or injury which prevented the veteran from obtaining appropriate clinical management for aortic disease 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 identified illness or injury that prevented the veteran from obtaining appropriate clinical management for aortic disease is causally related.
