Partly granted
The Board granted an effective date of March 7, 2022, for the award of service connection for right knee replacement and denied an earlier effective date for bilateral hearing loss.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the receipt of a complete claim within one year of the Veteran's intent to file a claim for benefits.
