Denied
The Veteran's claim for a compensable rating for service-connected bilateral hearing loss was denied because the evidence showed that the hearing loss did not meet the criteria for a compensable rating.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran's hearing acuity levels did not warrant a compensable rating based on the results of audiometric tests.
