Denied
The Board denied a compensable rating for right ear hearing loss and remanded the claim for service connection of left ear hearing loss.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not show that the Veteran's right ear hearing loss met the criteria for a compensable rating, while the left ear hearing loss claim required further development due to an inadequate VA examination.
