Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the case to correct an error by the AOJ and ensure proper re-adjudication of the Veteran's claim for an increased rating for a right hip disability, as well as the improper reduction in her rating.
The deciding factor: The July 2023 VA examination did not demonstrate improvement, and the procedural safeguards were not followed properly, making the reduction improper.
