The Board denied the Veteran's claim for compensation under 38 U.S.C. § 1151 for a right wrist condition, finding that there was no evidence of additional disability due to VA carelessness, negligence, lack of proper skill, error in judgment, or similar instance of fault.
The deciding factor: The Board found the evidence did not show that the Veteran's additional disability was caused by VA treatment and concluded that it was less likely than not that the delay in necessary treatment resulted in an additional disability.

What this means for you
A final Board denial may be appealed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims, generally within 120 days of the Board mailing date. A Supplemental Claim with new and relevant evidence is a separate option. Another Higher-Level Review of the Board decision is not available.
