The Board has determined that additional development is necessary prior to adjudication of the Veteran's claim for service connection for a right hip disorder (claimed as a right pelvic bone disorder).
The deciding factor: The evidence does not establish whether the current right hip disorder began during service or is related to some other incident of service.

What this means for you
A remand is not a loss. The Board sent the case back for more development — often a new exam or missing records — before making a final decision. Many remands later end in a grant, and the decision spells out exactly what the Board wanted to see.
