The Veteran's claim for reimbursement of travel expenses for a dental care appointment on January 22, 2025, is granted.
The deciding factor: The evidence is at least evenly balanced as to whether the Veteran had an in-person appointment on the date of service on appeal for which he seeks reimbursement of travel expenses. Resolving reasonable doubt for the Veteran, it was found that he completed a dental clinic appointment and is eligible for reimbursement.
