The Board remands the claims for payment or reimbursement of private ambulance transport expenses on March 24, 2021, and August 11, 2021, to ensure proper development and consideration under applicable laws and regulations.
The deciding factor: The AOJ did not properly consider the Veteran's claim under the provisions of 38 U.S.C. § 1725, necessitating a remand for further development and notice to the Veteran.

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.
