Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for an initial compensable rating for chronic bronchitis for further development due to unclear VA examination results and reported worsening of the condition.
The deciding factor: Remand is necessary as the September 2024 VA examination did not fully address the Board's directives, and there are reported discrepancies in the examination findings.
