Last reviewed for CCPS 08 January 2007.
Preliminary questions [27121]
27122 there is some evidence that having a specified autoimmune disorder may be a factor in the development or worsening of the condition under consideration.
27123 — the veteran has had a specified autoimmune disorder at some time.
2576 the veteran has had systemic lupus erythematosus at some time.
or
the veteran has had psoriatic arthropathy at some time.or
20036 the veteran has had ankylosing spondylitis at some time.
or
20038 the veteran has had rheumatoid arthritis at some time.
or
36505 the veteran has had pernicious anaemia at some time.
or
36506 the veteran has had systemic sclerosis at some time.
27124 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the specified autoimmune disorder and VEA service for osteoporosis.
27125 the veteran had the identified illness or injury, a specified autoimmune disorder, at the time of the clinical onset of the condition under consideration.
27126 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the specified autoimmune disorder and VEA service for the clinical onset of osteoporosis.
27129 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the specified autoimmune disorder and operational service for the clinical onset of osteoporosis.
or
27130 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the specified autoimmune disorder 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. the veteran had the identified illness or injury, a specified autoimmune disorder, at the time of the clinical worsening of the condition under consideration.27128 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the specified autoimmune disorder and VEA service for the clinical worsening of osteoporosis.
27131 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the specified autoimmune disorder and operational service for the clinical worsening of osteoporosis.
or
27132 — the veteran has established the causal connection between the specified autoimmune disorder and eligible service for the clinical worsening of osteoporosis.
Clinical onset and operational service [27129]
27133 — the identified illness or injury, a specified autoimmune disorder, is causally related to operational service.
Clinical onset and eligible service [27130]
the identified illness or injury, a specified autoimmune disorder, which the veteran had at the time of the clinical onset of the condition under consideration, is rheumatoid arthritis or ankylosing spondylitis.27134 — the identified illness or injury, a specified autoimmune disorder, is causally related to eligible service.
Clinical worsening and operational service [27131]
27133 — the identified illness or injury, a specified autoimmune disorder, 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, a specified autoimmune disorder, is causally related.Clinical worsening and eligible service [27132]
the identified illness or injury, a specified autoimmune disorder, which the veteran had at the time of the clinical worsening of the condition under consideration, is rheumatoid arthritis or ankylosing spondylitis.27134 — the identified illness or injury, a specified autoimmune disorder, 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, a specified autoimmune disorder, is causally related.
