Dismissed
The appeal concerning entitlement to payment of the cost of non-VA dental services provided on July 14, 2020, and November 30, 2020, has been dismissed as the claims have been resolved administratively.
The deciding factor: The issue is dismissed because the underlying claims for payment were approved by administrative action, making further Board review unnecessary.

What this means for you
A dismissal means the Board did not decide the issue on its merits — usually because it was withdrawn or had become moot. It says more about procedure than about whether a claim like this can win.
