Dismissed
The appeal with respect to entitlement to an initial rating in excess of 10 percent for hypertension is dismissed due to the fact that the June 2024 rating decision merely implemented the Board's June 2024 decision as to the initial rating to be assigned for hypertension.
The deciding factor: The Board does not have jurisdiction to review that aspect of the June 2024 rating decision that implemented a June 2024 decision of the Board that granted an initial 10 percent rating, and no higher, for hypertension.
