The Veteran's air ambulance transport claim is being remanded due to the VA Regional Office sending notice of a hearing at an incorrect address, and the appellant failed to report for the hearing. The case will be scheduled for another hearing.
The deciding factor: VA sent the appellant incorrect hearing notification, leading to their failure to attend the previously scheduled hearing.

What this means for you
A remand is not a loss. The Board sent the case back for more development — often a new exam or missing records — before making a final decision. Many remands later end in a grant, and the decision spells out exactly what the Board wanted to see.
