Remanded (sent back)
The appeal for eligibility for benefits under the VA's Program of Comprehensive Assistance for Family Caregivers (PCAFC) is remanded due to a pre-decisional duty-to-assist error and an inadequate medical decision.
The deciding factor: Remand is required because notification of the underlying decision is not of record and is otherwise legally inadequate, and there is a pre-decisional duty-to-assist error. Additionally, the CEAT's medical determination lacks sufficient supporting rationale.
