Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for an increased, compensable disability rating for service-connected bilateral hearing loss based on the evidence of record.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a higher rating as the Veteran's hearing impairment was consistent with Roman numeral I in both ears, resulting in a noncompensable rating under DC 6100.
