Remanded (sent back)
The Board remanded the claim for service connection of a respiratory disorder (asthma) because the VA did not provide a required medical examination and failed to notify the Veteran of his right to a hearing.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the VA committed errors in its duty to assist by not securing a VA examination and notifying the Veteran of his right to a pre-decisional hearing.
