Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for anemia as secondary to the Veteran's service-connected hemorrhoids and hypertension prior to August 10, 2022 on a basis other than pursuant to the PACT Act.
The deciding factor: The VA examiner found that the Veteran's anemia was caused by his service-connected hemorrhoids, while another examiner concluded that his hypertension was related to exposure to herbicide agents during service in Vietnam.
