Dismissed
The claim for reimbursement of the cost of non-VA medical care provided by ESC and HEC through the VCCP was dismissed as there is no determination by VA on the matter, and the process for payment in the VCCP does not allow for Board review.
The deciding factor: The appeal must be dismissed because there has been no determination by VA regarding the reimbursement of expenses related to non-VA medical care on the dates of service, and the process for billing through the VCCP does not contemplate Board review.
