Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the service connection claim for a right elbow disorder to obtain a new medical opinion as to its etiology.
The deciding factor: The September 2022 medical opinion is inadequate and does not address all possible diagnoses or provide an explanation for differentiating between the Veteran's ulnar nerve impairment and epicondylitis.
