Hearing loss decisions — 2021

5,642 vetted Board decisions in 2021.

Browse by year

New decisions are added every week, and older years are actively being backfilled — a year that looks thin or missing here (especially 2011–2017) is a gap in our library, not in the Board’s decisions.

DeniedJanuary 2021
The Board has determined that the Veteran's current bilateral hearing loss is not related to his military service, as there was no evidence of hearing problems within one year of discharge and the VA examiners found no causal connection between the hearing loss and service.
Remanded (sent back)January 2021
The Veteran's claim for service connection for hypertension is reopened, but the issues of service connection for pseudofolliculitis barbae, an acquired psychiatric disorder, and bilateral hearing loss are remanded for further development.
