Remanded (sent back)
The Board remanded the veteran's claims for service connection for GERD, back disability, left knee disability, and right knee disability. The Board needs more medical evidence to make a decision.
The deciding factor: The Board is unable to make a fully-informed decision because the Veteran did not receive a VA medical examination to assess the nature and etiology of his conditions.
