Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the matter of entitlement to service connection for cause of death due to a need for additional evidence, specifically an autopsy report and a medical opinion.
The deciding factor: A remand is necessary to ensure that due process is followed and there is a complete record upon which to decide the Appellant's claim so that she is afforded every possible consideration.
