Remanded (sent back)
The Board remanded the Veteran's claims for service connection for left and right knee chondromalacia due to procedural issues. The Veteran will need to file a Supplemental Claim if they want VA to consider any new evidence.
The deciding factor: The August 2022 rating decision was defective as it did not meet statutory requirements, leading to the remand.
