Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the Veteran's claims for a new examination to assess the current severity of his bilateral hearing loss and to determine if extraschedular consideration is warranted.
The deciding factor: Remand was necessary due to pre-decisional duty to assist errors, including an unaddressed claim for worsening hearing loss and a failure to refer the Veteran's TDIU claim for extraschedular consideration despite meeting schedular criteria.
