Partly grantedPACT Act
The Veteran's appeal for sleep apnea was dismissed. A compensable rating for bilateral hearing loss was denied. The appeals for colon cancer, bladder disability, acquired psychiatric disability, and headaches were remanded.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the Veteran's withdrawal of the appeal for sleep apnea, inadequate evidence for a compensable rating for bilateral hearing loss, and the need for further examinations and opinions for the other conditions.
