The Board remands the claim for payment or reimbursement of non-VA medical care provided by Riverside Radiology on November 22, 2022, due to unclear and inconsistent notice to the Veteran regarding the denial of his claim.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the lack of adequate notice to the Veteran regarding the basis for the denial of his claim, which is necessary to comply with statutory requirements.

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.
