Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the matter for the AOJ to provide complete notice of the decision as required by 38 U.S.C. § 5104 and to obtain a new medical opinion from the CEAT regarding the Veteran's eligibility for PCAFC.
The deciding factor: The July 2022 Centralized Eligibility and Appeals Team (CEAT) determination is legally inadequate because it lacks sufficient rationale for its findings, particularly in relation to evidence of memory/cognition impairment and bathing assistance.
