Partly granted
The veteran's claim for a compensable rating for bilateral hearing loss was denied. The claim for service connection for a sleep disorder was remanded for further evaluation.
The deciding factor: The decision on the hearing loss was based on audiometric test results that did not meet the criteria for a compensable rating; the sleep disorder claim was remanded due to errors in the duty to assist.
