The Board has decided to remand the Veteran's claims for an anxiety condition and a skin condition due to insufficient evidence of record, including the need for VA examinations.
The deciding factor: The decision is based on the lack of sufficient information in the record regarding the nature and etiology of the claimed conditions, as well as the need for further examination to address potential service connection.

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.
