The Board remands the claim for service connection for Meniere's Disease to schedule a VA examination to determine its etiology and whether it is related to service.
The deciding factor: Insufficient medical evidence exists to make a decision on the claim, as no VA examiner has opined on the nature or etiology of Meniere's Disease in relation to service.

What this means for you
A remand is not a loss. The Board sent the case back for more development — often a new exam or missing records — before making a final decision. Many remands later end in a grant, and the decision spells out exactly what the Board wanted to see.
