The Board remands the claims for payment or reimbursement of ambulance services provided on April 23, 2021, April 26, 2021, and May 1, 2021, to obtain necessary medical records and properly adjudicate them under the provisions of 38 U.S.C. § 1725.
The deciding factor: The claims were remanded due to a lack of sufficient evidence to determine if the Veteran was an active VA health-care participant in the 24 months prior to the ambulance services, and to obtain necessary medical records.

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.
