The Board remands the claim for the AOJ to obtain additional records and adjudicate the Veteran's claim under all potentially applicable theories of entitlement.
The deciding factor: Further evidence is needed to determine if reimbursement would have been payable under the VCCP or 38 U.S.C. � 1725, as the record does not contain sufficient information regarding the emergency nature of the treatment and whether the Veteran was an active VA health-care participant.

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.
