The Board remands the matter to secure additional records and determine if the Veteran is entitled to payment or reimbursement of medical expenses incurred on September 11, 2023.
The deciding factor: Remand necessary due to missing evidence regarding the date of receipt of the claim for reimbursement and whether the Veteran had exhausted action to obtain payment from a third party.

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.
