Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for a higher rating for the right knee condition due to inadequate VA examination reports.
The deciding factor: The VA examinations did not adequately address the ameliorative effects of medication on the Veteran's right knee condition and failed to measure the range of motion in the opposite left knee, as required by Correia v. McDonald.
