Ischemic heart disease decisions — 2015

1,863 vetted Board decisions in 2015.

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.

Remanded (sent back)January 2015
The Veteran seeks service connection for a heart disability, but the appeal is remanded due to incomplete personnel records and potential exposure to herbicides near the Korean DMZ. The Board will determine if the Veteran's units were in an area where herbicides were applied.
Remanded (sent back)January 2015
The Board has remanded the case due to insufficient information regarding herbicide exposure and a need for a VA examination to determine if prostate cancer or heart disease is related to in-service exposure to specific chemicals.
Partly grantedJanuary 2015
The Veteran's PTSD has been granted service connection, but a higher initial rating of over 70% is denied. The Veteran was also granted TDIU status.
