What the VA Looks For
When evaluating a uterine condition under this code, the VA focuses on:
- The nature of your symptoms related to the disease, injury, or adhesions.
- Whether your symptoms require continuous treatment.
- Whether continuous treatment controls your symptoms. Symptoms that remain uncontrolled despite continuous treatment are evaluated at the highest level within this formula.
