Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for payment or reimbursement of non-VA medical expenses incurred on May 9, 2023, to ensure all relevant evidence is considered and the Veteran receives proper notice.
The deciding factor: The VHA did not properly consider the Veteran's claim under the provisions of 38 U.S.C. § 1725 in the June 2023 decision.

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.
