Remanded (sent back)
The Board remanded the case to schedule a VA examination for the veteran's right shoulder disability. The decision is based on the need to correct a pre-decisional duty-to-assist error.
The deciding factor: The Board found that VA's failure to provide a VA examination constituted a pre-decisional duty-to-assist error.
