Dismissed
The appeal of the claim for service connection for hearing loss was dismissed as the March 2023 notice of disagreement did not express disagreement with a valid rating decision.
The deciding factor: The March 2023 NOD did not address a valid rating decision, and thus the appeal was improperly docketed.
