Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for service connection of an acquired psychiatric disorder due to military sexual trauma (MST) for further review and readjudication.
The deciding factor: The Board erred in not addressing evidence that the Veteran underwent in-patient care for chronic PTSD due to MST, as required by a previous Joint Motion for Partial Remand.
