Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the Veteran's claim for service connection for hearing loss due to an inadequate VA examination.
The deciding factor: The opinion from the VA examiner was found to be inadequate as it relied on the absence of documented treatment and did not provide adequate rationale or consider continuity of symptoms.
