Remanded (sent back)
The Veteran's claim for service connection of a right hip disability is remanded to schedule an examination and obtain a nexus opinion.
The deciding factor: The Board decided to remand the case due to the Veteran's failure to appear for scheduled examinations and hearings, and the unique challenges presented by his housing insecurity and multiple addresses.
