Partly granted
The Board denied an initial compensable rating for chronic rhinitis and remanded the claim for service connection for obstructive sleep apnea.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's chronic rhinitis did not meet the criteria for a compensable rating, while the evidence was insufficient to make a determination on the OSA claim.
