Partly granted
The Board denied service connection for a bilateral hip disorder and remanded the issue of entitlement to service connection for obstructive sleep apnea.
The deciding factor: The evidence does not support a finding of a current disability or functional impairment related to the claimed bilateral hip disorder, while further medical evaluation is needed regarding the etiology of the Veteran's obstructive sleep apnea.
