Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for service connection for hypothyroidism to correct a duty to assist error that occurred prior to the March 2024 rating decision.
The deciding factor: The December 2023 and March 2024 medical opinions were found inadequate, necessitating an addendum opinion from an appropriate clinician.
