The Board remands the matter for the AOJ to provide the Veteran with notice of his right to a hearing before the AOJ and then readjudicate the claim based on the record.
The deciding factor: Remand is required due to an error by the AOJ in failing to inform the Veteran of his pre-decisional right to a hearing prior to the issuance of the December 2019 rating decision.
