Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the Veteran's claim for an increased rating in excess of 10 percent for right knee disability due to an inadequate VA medical opinion.
The deciding factor: The medical opinion provided was deemed inadequate as it failed to provide a definitive assessment of the ameliorative effects of medication on the severity of the Veteran's right knee disability, particularly regarding range of motion (ROM).
