Granted
The Board granted service connection for obstructive sleep apnea, assigning a 50 percent rating effective March 23, 2022.
The deciding factor: The November 17, 2015, rating decision was not the product of clear and unmistakable error (CUE), as the evidence at that time did not show a confirmed diagnosis of sleep apnea.
