Remanded (sent back)
The case is remanded for additional evidentiary development and discussion consistent with the terms of a Joint Motion for Partial Remand.
The deciding factor: The Board failed to ensure that potentially relevant private chiropractic records were obtained prior to issuing its decision, and did not adequately discuss evidence pertinent to the severity of the Veteran's radiculopathy.
