Partly granted
The veteran's claims for compensable ratings for chronic sinusitis and hypertension were denied. The reductions in ratings for allergic rhinitis and insomnia disorder were found improper, and the original ratings were restored. The claim for service connection for sleep apnea was remanded.
The deciding factor: The decisions were based on the evidence of record at the time of the rating decisions and the applicable VA regulations.
