The Board has remanded the case due to incomplete medical opinions and a need for clarification of employment history. The Veteran's right knee disability claim remains before the Board.
The deciding factor: Incomplete medical opinions regarding functional loss during flare-ups and repetitive use, as well as discrepancies in the Veteran's employment history, necessitate further development.

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.
What you can do next
