Partly granted

The Board granted payment for the cost of non-VA COVID-19 testing provided on December 29, 2020, but denied payment for the January 11, 2021, test.

The deciding factor: Payment was granted based on a VA policy in effect at the time of the first test, but not for the second as it required prior authorization which was not obtained.

What this means for you

A partial grant means some issues were granted while others were denied or remanded — common in multi-issue claims. Look at which issues went which way, and how each was argued.
