Partly granted
The veteran's claim for service connection of right shoulder dysfunction was granted and remanded. The Board found new evidence warranted readjudication, but the VA examination was inadequate.
The deciding factor: The Board found that a VA addendum opinion addressing the nature and etiology of the Veteran's right shoulder dysfunction should have been obtained prior to issuance of rating decision on appeal.
