Partly granted
The appeal resulted in the reopening of the claim for sleep apnea and the granting of service connection for a psychiatric disorder to include insomnia, while denying service connection for sleep apnea.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on new evidence that supported the reopening of the sleep apnea claim, but not enough evidence to establish a link between the condition and service. The Veteran's psychiatric disorder to include insomnia was granted due to evidence supporting its onset during active service.
