The Board remands the claim for payment or reimbursement of ambulance services provided by North Scott County Ambulance District on April 5, 2019, to determine if claims were filed with Medicare and whether any remaining balance is a copayment, deductible, coinsurance, or other medical expense.
The deciding factor: The remand is necessary due to the need for further evidence regarding the Veteran's health insurance coverage and potential Medicare claims.

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.
