Remanded (sent back)
The appeal for eligibility to enroll in the VA's Program of Comprehensive Assistance for Family Caregivers (PCAFC) is remanded due to a pre-decisional duty to assist error, specifically an inadequate medical decision regarding the Veteran's need for personal care services.
The deciding factor: Remand is necessary to obtain a more adequate medical opinion from the Centralized Eligibility and Appeals Team (CEAT) regarding the Veteran's eligibility for PCAFC benefits based on their need for personal care services.
