Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the issues of entitlement to a rating in excess of 20 percent for a neck disability, an initial rating in excess of 20 percent for left upper extremity radiculopathy, and a rating in excess of 70 percent for posttraumatic stress disorder with depression and mood disorder (PTSD) for further development.
The deciding factor: The Board remands the issues due to deficiencies in the statement of reasons and bases regarding the Veteran's claims, including the need for an updated examination and additional evidence.
