The Board remands the matter for further development to ensure compliance with statutory and regulatory duties regarding notice and evidence review.
The deciding factor: Due process requires that the AOJ ensure a copy of the record before it is made available for the Board's review, as the current record is unclear about what evidence was used in evaluating the Veteran's claim.

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.
