Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the matter for a VA examination to assess the severity and manifestations of bilateral plantar fascitis due to inadequate pre-decisional duty to assist errors.
The deciding factor: Inadequate medical examinations do not provide sufficient information to determine the appropriate rating for the Veteran's bilateral plantar fascitis during the period on appeal.
