Partly granted
The Board denied a rating in excess of 20 percent for the Veteran's right shoulder disability and remanded the claim for service connection for a cervical spine disability.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a higher rating for the right shoulder disability, while the previous VA examination was found inadequate to determine the etiology of the cervical spine disability.
