The Veteran's claim for payment or reimbursement of medical expenses incurred at OU Medical Center is being remanded due to the need for additional evidence regarding VA's nonfeasibility in providing emergency services.

The Veteran's claim for special monthly pension based on the need for aid and attendance or housebound status is being remanded due to the need for additional evidence and clarification of his current medical condition.

The veteran's claim for payment or reimbursement of medical expenses incurred at OU Medical Center from June 27, 2003 to June 30, 2003 is denied as he did not satisfy all the criteria under the Veterans Millennium Health Care and Benefits Act. However, if the services were rendered in a medical emergency of such nature that delay would have been hazardous to life or health, and no VA facility was feasibly available, reimbursement may be made pursuant to 38 U.S.C.A. § 1728.

The Board denied the veteran's claims for increased ratings for his service-connected lumbar myositis, psychoneurosis and conversion hysteria, residuals of shrapnel wounds of the left thigh and pelvis with retained foreign bodies and scars, and residuals of shell fragment wounds of the right thigh and left leg. The veteran was also denied entitlement to a total disability rating based on individual unemployability due to service-connected disabilities.

The Board denied the Veteran's claim for an initial evaluation in excess of 10 percent for his service-connected coronary artery disease, finding that the evidence did not support a higher rating based on the severity of his condition.
