Dismissed
The appeals for an effective date prior to June 28, 2023 for the grant of service connection for coronary artery disease, a disability rating higher than 30 percent for coronary artery disease, and a compensable disability rating for hypertension were dismissed due to duplicate claims in the system.
The deciding factor: The duplicate claim or appeal has remained in the system as an error, requiring dismissal to prevent further errors within the digital claims processing system.
