Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for service connection for a neck condition, degenerative arthritis with spinal stenosis of the thoracolumbar spine, and osteoarthritis of the right hip due to unmet development requirements.
The deciding factor: Remand is necessary as the December 2022 remand directives have not been substantially complied with, including issues related to obtaining private medical records and scheduling VA examinations.
