Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for service connection for a psychiatric disorder, GERD, and hypertension to the AOJ for correction of an error by providing notice of the Veteran's right to a pre-decisional hearing.
The deciding factor: Remand is necessary due to the failure to provide the Veteran with notice of his right to a pre-decisional hearing before the AOJ issued its initial decision on his appeal, which could have a reasonable possibility of aiding in substantiating the appellant's claim.
