Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for service connection for bilateral hearing loss due to a need for further development and compliance with prior remand directives.
The deciding factor: Further development is required as the previous VA opinion did not address whether the Veteran experienced hearing loss separate from her otosclerosis, and there is insufficient evidence regarding TERA exposure risk activities.
