Remanded (sent back)
The Board's decision was remanded for the Veteran to be provided with proper notice of his right to a hearing on a supplemental claim, and for re-adjudication.
The deciding factor: Remand was necessary due to an error in the Board's failure to provide an adequate statement of reasons and bases for its decision, specifically related to the duty to notify regarding hearings.
