Partly granted
The Board granted an initial 60 percent rating for chronic kidney disease with renal cysts and remanded the claim for service connection for sleep apnea.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's GFR measurements met the criteria for a 60 percent rating, while there was insufficient evidence to support a higher rating. The Board also found that an adequate medical opinion on the etiology of the Veteran's sleep apnea had not been obtained and remanded the claim for further development.
