What this means for you
A remand sends an issue back for more development, often a new examination or missing records. It does not award the benefit or decide the final outcome. The original decision explains the additional work ordered.

Other Board decisions on a similar condition or argued the same way.
- Remanded (sent back)
The Veteran's tinnitus is granted as service-connected. The Board has remanded the claims for right knee condition, left hip bursitis, low back condition, and left ankle condition due to insufficient examination opinions addressing causation and aggravation.
- Granted
The Board has granted service connection for left hip bursitis and denied service connection for right shoulder pain and bilateral hearing loss. The Veteran's left hip bursitis is found to be related to her active military service, while the evidence does not support a finding of current right shoulder disability or bilateral hearing loss.
- Granted
The Board has granted service connection for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) secondary to the Veteran's service-connected musculoskeletal disabilities on a causation basis, with obesity as an intermediate step.
- Granted
The Veteran's claim for service connection for left hip torn labrum and bursitis was granted due to the submission of new evidence that supports his contention that these conditions are related to his military service.
