Denied
The Board denied accrued benefits in excess of $13,719.36 for the appellant's mother as she had already been awarded this amount and it has since been paid to her estate.
The deciding factor: The appellant did not provide adequate documentation for additional unreimbursed expenses and was only entitled to the amount already awarded.
