Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the matter of entitlement to special monthly compensation based on aid and attendance/housebound due to an inadequate VA examination.
The deciding factor: The June 2021 VA examination is found to be inadequate as it did not address the Veteran's and his wife's reports regarding the impact of migraines on the need for regular aid and attendance, necessitating a new examination.
