Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for an adequate medical opinion regarding the nature and etiology of the Veteran's acquired psychiatric disorders.
The deciding factor: The April 2019 VA medical opinion was found inadequate due to lack of rationale, and the evidence does not contain sufficient information to adjudicate the claim.
