The Board has determined that the Veteran met all eligibility requirements for PCAFC enrollment at Level Two prior to his passing, and therefore grants eligibility for enrollment in the program.
The deciding factor: Both the July 2021 and August 2021 VHA determinations found the Veteran eligible for PCAFC enrollment based on his need for personal care services due to an inability to perform all ADLs and a need for supervision, protection, or instruction; that participation in the program was in his best interest; and that he was unable to self-sustain in the community.
