The Board has determined that additional development is needed for the Veteran's claims of an increased rating for cholinergic urticaria and TDIU due to service-connected disabilities. The Veteran will be scheduled for a VA examination to assess his current level of severity, and all pertinent treatment records must be obtained.
The deciding factor: The Board finds that additional development is necessary to ensure the claims are evaluated in a thorough manner.

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.
