Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for service connection for acute renal failure due to rhabdomyolysis because of a pre-decisional duty to assist error in that the July 2023 VA examination and corresponding medical opinion contain contradictory information.
The deciding factor: The examiner's evaluation is found to be contradictory, making it unclear whether the Veteran has a current diagnosis of acute renal failure, necessitating a clarifying opinion.
