Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the case to obtain a medical opinion that adequately addresses the Veteran's bilateral hearing loss disability and reconciles any conflicting information in the evidence of record.
The deciding factor: Remand is necessary due to an inadequate VA examination report, which did not provide a clear conclusion regarding the relationship between the Veteran's hearing loss and service.
