Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for payment or reimbursement of non-VA ambulance services due to the remaining co-payment amount being covered by Humana Inc., and VA is unable to pay under current law.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the fact that the Veteran had health insurance coverage, which covered a portion of the cost, leaving only a co-payment for which VA cannot reimburse under the applicable regulations.
