Remanded (sent back)
The Board denied service connection for a low back condition and remanded the remaining issues for further development, including obtaining additional medical opinions.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support a finding of a current disability or an in-service injury related to the Veteran's claimed low back condition. For other claims, the Board found that VA had not met its duty to assist by failing to obtain adequate examinations and TERA opinions.
