Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the case for additional medical inquiry to address whether the Veteran needed regular aid and attendance due to service-connected or non-service-connected disabilities.
The deciding factor: The September 2024 medical opinion did not fully address the Board's remand directive, specifically regarding Lewy body dementia which was recently found to be service connected.
