Shoulder decisions — 2020

4,102 vetted Board decisions in 2020.

Browse by year

New decisions are added every week, and older years are actively being backfilled — a year that looks thin or missing here (especially 2011–2017) is a gap in our library, not in the Board’s decisions.

DismissedJanuary 2020
The Veteran's claims for hypertension and red eyes with high pressure were dismissed due to withdrawal. The Board granted service connection for obstructive sleep apnea and left shoulder disability, finding that both conditions began during service.
Remanded (sent back)January 2020
The Veteran's claims for service connection and a rating in excess of 10 percent for lumbosacral strain are remanded due to inadequate VA examinations. The issues regarding trigeminal neuralgia and degenerative arthritis require additional development.
