DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS







38 CFR Part 4







RIN 2900-AM60







 



Schedule for Rating Disabilities; Appendices A, B, and C







AGENCY: Department of Veterans Affairs.







ACTION: Final rule.







-----------------------------------------------------------------------







SUMMARY: The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is revising its 



Schedule for Rating Disabilities, Appendices A, B, and C to include all 



current diagnostic codes. Appendix A is also amended to include all the 



diagnostic code historical information since the last review.







DATES: Effective Date: This amendment is effective April 19, 2007.







FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Trude Steele, Regulations Staff 



(211D), Compensation and Pension Service, Veterans Benefits 



Administration, Department of Veterans Affairs, 810 Vermont Avenue, 



NW., Washington, DC 20420, (202) 273-7210.







SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Schedule for Rating Disabilities, 38 CFR 



Part 4, Appendices A, B, and C have not been updated since July 1, 



1988. These Appendices are tools for users of the Schedule for Rating 



Disabilities. The Appendices reflect changes to the diagnostic criteria 



in the Schedule for Rating Disabilities.



    We have amended the Appendices to add changes to the Schedule for 



Rating Disabilities since the Appendices were last updated. 



Additionally, we removed language in Appendix A that showed when a 



diagnostic code was updated to correct spelling, revise text, or other 



additional changes, which had no impact on the disability code. Those 



changes were incorporated within the text when amended. All diagnostic 



codes in Appendix A will now be categorized by when they were added, 



removed, whether the criterion was amended, and whether the disability 



evaluation was amended. We will continue to include the date for 



historical purposes. We revised Appendices B and C to provide the 



current diagnostic codes and disability terminology. We will continue 



to update the Appendices as the Schedule for Rating Disabilities is 



revised.







Administrative Procedures Act







    This final rule merely replaces inaccurate examples and does not 



alter the content of the regulations. Accordingly, there is a basis for 



dispensing with prior notice and comment and the delayed effective date 



provisions of 5 U.S.C. 553.







Paperwork Reduction Act







    This document contains no provisions constituting a collection of 



information under the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501-3521).







Regulatory Flexibility Act







    The Secretary hereby certifies that this final rule will not have a 



significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities 



as they are defined in the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601-



612. This final rule would not affect any small entities. Only VA 



beneficiaries could be directly affected. Therefore, pursuant to 5 



U.S.C. 605(b), this final rule is exempt from the initial and final 



regulatory flexibility analysis requirements of sections 603 and 604.







Executive Order 12866







    Executive Order 12866 directs agencies to assess all costs and 



benefits of available regulatory alternatives and, when regulation is 



necessary, to select regulatory approaches that maximize net benefits 



(including potential economic, environmental, public health and safety, 



and other advantages; distributive impacts; and equity). The Executive 



Order classifies a ``significant regulatory action,'' requiring review 



by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) unless OMB waives such 



review, as any regulatory action that is likely to result in a rule 



that may: (1) Have an annual effect on the economy of $100 million or 



more or adversely affect in a material way the economy, a sector of the 



economy, productivity, competition, jobs, the environment, public 



health or safety, or State, local, or tribal governments or 



communities; (2) Create a serious inconsistency or otherwise interfere 



with an action taken or planned by another agency; (3) Materially alter 



the budgetary impact of entitlements, grants, user fees, or loan 



programs or the rights and obligations of recipients thereof; or (4) 



Raise novel legal or policy issues arising out of legal mandates, the 



President's priorities, or the principles set forth in the Executive 



Order.



    The economic, interagency, budgetary, legal, and policy 



implications of this final rule have been examined and it has been 



determined not to be a significant regulatory action under Executive 



Order 12866.







Unfunded Mandates







    The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 requires, at 2 U.S.C. 



1532, that agencies prepare an assessment of anticipated costs and 



benefits before issuing any rule that may result in the expenditure by 



State, local, and tribal governments, in the aggregate, or by the 



private sector, of $100 million or more (adjusted annually for 



inflation) in any year. This final rule would have no such effect on 



State, local, and tribal governments, or on the private sector.







Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance Numbers and Titles







    The Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance program numbers and 



titles for this final are 64.104, Pension for Non-Service-Connected 



Disability for Veterans and 64.109, Veterans Compensation for Service-



Connected Disability.
