Partly granted
The veteran's claims for a higher rating and earlier effective dates for insomnia and tinnitus were denied. Claims for service connection for hypertension, right foot condition, and sleep condition were remanded.
The deciding factor: The Board determined that the evidence did not support a higher rating or earlier effective date for insomnia and tinnitus, but remanded other claims due to inadequate medical examinations and challenges to examiner competency.
