Partly grantedPACT Act
The veteran's claim for service connection for chronic fatigue syndrome was reopened due to new evidence, but the claim for PTSD was denied. The claims for obstructive sleep apnea and other psychiatric disorders were remanded for further development.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the receipt of new and material evidence for chronic fatigue syndrome and the lack of a current diagnosis for PTSD.
