The Veteran's claim for payment or reimbursement of medical expenses incurred from October 29, 2007 to November 6, 2007 at St. Luke Hospital East was denied because the claims were not filed within the required time frame and additional evidence was not provided in a timely manner.
The deciding factor: The claims for payment or reimbursement were either not filed within the 90-day period following the Veteran's discharge from St. Luke Hospital East, or if they were filed, did not provide the necessary supporting documentation within 30 days of the VAMC's request.
