Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the issues of the propriety of a rating reduction for GERD and entitlement to a compensable rating for IBS with GERD due to insufficient development.
The deciding factor: Remand is necessary to ensure that the Veteran has an opportunity to file a formal appeal and to afford him a new examination to determine the current level of severity of his service-connected conditions.
