The Board remands the claim for financial assistance in the purchase of an automobile or other conveyance and adaptive equipment to correct duty to assist errors.
The deciding factor: Remand is necessary to obtain relevant non-VA treatment records from Dr. Fattah and Oak Hill Hospital, as VA failed to properly obtain these records prior to the decision on appeal.

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.
