Preliminary questions [27259]
there is some evidence that being immobile may be a factor in the development or worsening of the condition under consideration.27261 the veteran has been immobile for a continuous period of at least 60 days at some time.
27263 — the veteran has established the causal connection between being immobile and VEA service for osteoporosis.
27264 — the veteran has established the causal connection between being immobile and VEA service for the clinical onset of osteoporosis.
27267 — the veteran has established the causal connection between being immobile and operational service for the clinical onset of osteoporosis.
or
27266 — the veteran has established the causal connection between being immobile and eligible service for the clinical onset of osteoporosis.
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.27265 — the veteran has established the causal connection between being immobile and VEA service for the clinical worsening of osteoporosis.
27269 — the veteran has established the causal connection between being immobile and operational service for the clinical worsening of osteoporosis.
or
27268 — the veteran has established the causal connection between being immobile and eligible service for the clinical worsening of osteoporosis.
Clinical onset and operational service [27267]
the veteran was immobile for a continuous period of at least 60 days within the one year before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration. operational service made a material contribution to the veteran being immobile for a continuous period of at least 60 days within the one year before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration.or
the veteran was immobile for a continuous period of at least 60 days as a result of an illness or injury which is identifiable.27274 the identified illness or injury made a material contribution to the veteran being immobile for a continuous period of at least 60 days within the one year before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration.
27275 — the identified illness or injury which caused the immobility is causally related to operational service.
Clinical onset and eligible service [27266]
the veteran has been immobile for a continuous period of at least 120 days at some time. the veteran was immobile for a continuous period of at least 120 days within the one year before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration. eligible service made a material contribution to the veteran being immobile for a continuous period of at least 120 days within the one year before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration.or
the veteran was immobile for a continuous period of at least 60 days as a result of an illness or injury which is identifiable.27270 the identified illness or injury made a material contribution to the veteran being immobile for a continuous period of at least 120 days.
the identified illness or injury made a material contribution to the veteran being immobile for a continuous period of at least 120 days within the one year before the clinical onset of the condition under consideration.27272 — the identified illness or injury which caused the immobility is causally related to eligible service.
Clinical worsening and operational service [27269]
the veteran was immobile for a continuous period of at least 60 days after the clinical onset and within the one year before the clinical worsening of the condition under consideration. operational service made a material contribution to the veteran being immobile for a continuous period of at least 60 days after the clinical onset and within the one year before the clinical worsening of the condition under consideration.or
the veteran was immobile for a continuous period of at least 60 days as a result of an illness or injury which is identifiable.27278 the identified illness or injury made a material contribution to the veteran being immobile for a continuous period of at least 60 days within the one year before the clinical worsening of the condition under consideration.
27275 — the identified illness or injury which caused the immobility 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 which caused the immobility is causally related.Clinical worsening and eligible service [27268]
the veteran has been immobile for a continuous period of at least 120 days at some time. the veteran was immobile for a continuous period of at least 120 days after the clinical onset and within the one year before the clinical worsening of the condition under consideration. eligible service made a material contribution to the veteran being immobile for a continuous period of at least 120 days after the clinical onset and within the one year before the clinical worsening of the condition under consideration.or
the veteran was immobile for a continuous period of at least 60 days as a result of an illness or injury which is identifiable.27270 the identified illness or injury made a material contribution to the veteran being immobile for a continuous period of at least 120 days.
the identified illness or injury made a material contribution to the veteran being immobile for a continuous period of at least 120 days within the one year before the clinical worsening of the condition under consideration.27272 — the identified illness or injury which caused the immobility 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 which caused the immobility is causally related.
