Partly granted
The VA dismissed the claim for service connection for treatment of MDD with generalized anxiety disorder because it was already granted. The claims for service connection for MDD with generalized anxiety disorder, sleep apnea, erectile dysfunction, and back strain were remanded for further evaluation.
The deciding factor: The VA needs more information to determine if the veteran's conditions are related to military service.
