Remanded (sent back)
The Board remanded the case to obtain a new VA examination that adequately assesses the severity of the Veteran's PTSD symptoms related to military sexual trauma (MST).
The deciding factor: The April 2024 VA examination was deemed inadequate due to inconsistencies and failure to address the Veteran's mental health history.
