Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for a compensable rating prior to July 7, 2011, a rating in excess of 20 percent from July 7, 2011, and a rating in excess of 40 percent from October 6, 2015, for bilateral hearing loss.
The deciding factor: The AOJ failed to readjudicate the claims after a return from a higher-level review, constituting an error in satisfying its duty to assist.
