Denied
The Board denied the appellant's claim for eligibility to the direct payment of attorney fees based on past-due benefits awarded in an October 2020 Rating Decision.
The deciding factor: The October 2020 decision granting service connection for erectile dysfunction was not issued following a request for higher-level review, NOD, or supplemental claim, and thus did not constitute a qualifying type of appeal under the AMA scheme.
