Remanded (sent back)
The appeal for a higher rating of right elbow olecranon bursitis was remanded. The Board needs more information about the severity during flare-ups.
The deciding factor: The Board found that an addendum opinion estimating the Veteran's range of right elbow motion during a flare-up is necessary to cure a pre-decisional duty to assist error.
