Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for an increased rating for cervical strain to obtain outstanding private medical records, specifically April 2022 cervical spine X-rays.
The deciding factor: A pre-decisional error was identified as VA treatment records noting private cervical spine x-rays were associated with the claims file prior to the December 2022 rating decision on appeal.
