Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for eligibility for specially adapted housing and a special home adaptation grant to be readjudicated, considering the retroactive award of service connection for a recurrent lumbar spine disability and right lower extremity sciatic nerve radiculopathy.
The deciding factor: The issues were remanded due to the need for a readjudication with consideration of newly established service-connected conditions.

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.
