Partly granted
The Board denied a compensable rating for bilateral hearing loss and remanded the claim for service connection for an acquired psychiatric disorder, to include anxiety disorder.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's hearing impairment did not meet the criteria for a compensable rating, while there was insufficient evidence to make a decision on the service connection claim for an acquired psychiatric disorder.
