Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the issues of entitlement to a compensable rating for a right knee torn meniscus, limitation of extension; a rating in excess of 20 percent for a right knee disability; and a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU) due to the need for additional development.
The deciding factor: A remand is necessary to provide the Veteran with information regarding the competency of the examiner, as mandated by the VA's duty to assist.
