The Board remands the issue of eligibility for benefits under the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Program of Comprehensive Assistance for Family Caregivers due to an inadequate medical determination.
The deciding factor: Remand is necessary to obtain a new medical opinion from the Centralized Eligibility and Appeals Team (CEAT) considering all medical information of record, as the previous decision was found legally inadequate.

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.
