Partly granted
The VA dismissed the claim for service connection of psychosis or mental illness (claimed as sleep disturbances) for treatment eligibility. The claims for asthma and bronchitis were denied, while the claims for psychiatric disability, back disability, and neck disability were remanded for further evaluation.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the lack of competent medical evidence and the absence of a current disability for asthma and bronchitis, as well as the need for further medical opinions for the other conditions.
