Question:
Jim, what is the absorbent pad requirement for ratings of 40 and 60% of residuals of prostate cancer?
Jim's Reply:
In The Schedule For Rating Disabilities, we find Voiding Dysfunction: Rate particular condition as urine leakage, frequency, or obstructed voiding.
Continual Urine Leakage, Post Surgical Urinary Diversion, Urinary Incontinence, or Stress Incontinence:
- Requiring the use of an appliance or the wearing of absorbent materials which must be changed more than 4 times per day...60%
- Requiring the wearing of absorbent materials which must be changed 2 to 4 times per day....40%
- Requiring the wearing of absorbent materials which must be changed less than 2 times per day ...20 %
