Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the matter for a new VA examination to determine the current severity of the Veteran's myocardial infarction, including whether an exercise stress test or interview-based testing is more representative of the current condition.
The deciding factor: The December 2023 remand directives were not fulfilled as the examiner failed to provide the required report of questions and responses in the examination.
