Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for service connection for tinnitus to ensure an adequate examination is conducted.
The deciding factor: The May 2023 VA examination was found inadequate, and the Veteran should be afforded another opportunity to report for an examination due to a lack of adequate notification for the August 2024 scheduled examination.
