Remanded (sent back)
The appeal is remanded to obtain an opinion as to whether it is in the best interest of the Veteran to participate in the PCAFC, given that he has been in need of personal care services for at least six continuous months based on an inability to perform certain ADLs.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on a lack of evidence showing that the Veteran's participation in the PCAFC is in his best interest, as this step was not completed by the AOJ.
