Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the appeal for an adequate medical opinion to determine the etiology of the Veteran's bilateral hearing loss.
The deciding factor: The July 2019 VA examination was found inadequate due to a lack of rationale and matching audiogram data, requiring a new examination with appropriate opinions.
