Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for a higher rating for his service-connected bilateral hearing loss, as the evidence did not support a compensable disability rating.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's hearing loss was found to be non-severe enough according to VA regulations to warrant a higher, compensable rating.
