Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for an increased rating and earlier effective date for heart disability, increased rating for prostate cancer, special monthly compensation based on need for aid and attendance, and entitlement to TDIU due to inadequate VA examinations.
The deciding factor: Inadequate VA examinations require a remand to ensure that all evidence is considered and the Veteran's claims are fully informed decisions can be made.
