Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the issues of entitlement to increased ratings for neck and low back disabilities due to insufficient information in previous examinations.
The deciding factor: Remand is necessary to address discrepancies between range of motion measurements and Veteran's reported functional impairments, as well as to obtain retrospective opinions regarding the severity of the disabilities prior to specific dates.
