The Board remands the issue of entitlement to compensation under 38 U.S.C. §1151 for right hip fracture, also claimed as a right femur fracture, due to the need for additional development and clarification.
The deciding factor: Remand is needed due to the lack of adequate examination results and medical opinions addressing the issue on appeal.

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.
