Remanded (sent back)PACT Act
The Board remands the claims for service connection for benign prostatic enlargement and colon polyps to ensure an adequate medical opinion is obtained, considering all toxic exposures at Camp Lejeune.
The deciding factor: A pre-decisional duty to assist error was identified due to an inadequate VA medical opinion that did not consider all toxic exposure risk activities of the Veteran.
