The Board remands the matter to obtain additional evidence, including clinical records from the ambulance company and any hospital the Veteran was transported to.
The deciding factor: Insufficient evidence exists to determine whether the Veteran is eligible for reimbursement of non-VA ambulance expenses due to missing records and a need for further information.

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.
