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.

DeniedJanuary 2008
The VA determined that the veteran's degenerative joint disease status post old ununited scaphoid fracture, left wrist warrants a 10 percent rating and denied any higher rating.
Remanded (sent back)January 2008
The Board has determined that additional records are needed to properly adjudicate the veteran's claims, including confirming her service dates and obtaining medical records from various facilities. The veteran will be scheduled for VA examinations to determine the nature and likely etiology of any cardiovascular disease and bilateral hand conditions.
DeniedJanuary 2008

GrantedJanuary 2008
The Board has determined that the veteran's left wrist disability is related to his active duty service and grants service connection for this condition.
