The Board has remanded the claims for diabetes mellitus, nephropathy, coronary artery disease, right shoulder disability, and left shoulder disability due to a failure to provide notice of the Veteran's right to a hearing before VA.
The deciding factor: The decision was remanded because the AOJ did not provide the Veteran with notice of his right to a hearing before VA when issuing its initial decision on appeal.
