The appeal for payment of non-VA medical services provided on November 29, 2019, is dismissed as the claim has been paid and there remains no case or controversy for the Board to adjudicate.
The deciding factor: The administrative actions approving entitlement to payment for the medical services provided in the episode of care on November 29, 2019, constitutes a reversal of the initial denial, and is considered a full grant of the benefits sought in this appeal.

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A dismissal means the Board did not decide the issue on its merits — usually because it was withdrawn or had become moot.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.
