The Board remands the appeal for further development, including obtaining a CEAT medical opinion and issuing notice of the decision which complies with 38 U.S.C. § 5104.
The deciding factor: Remand is necessary due to an incomplete record, inadequate notice under 38 U.S.C. § 5104, and unclear reasons for the decision regarding eligibility for PCAFC benefits.

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.
