Granted
The Board granted reimbursement for the cost of beneficiary travel expenses for a VA dental appointment on March 1, 2021, due to the Veteran's failure to receive care being solely due to VA actions.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on resolving reasonable doubt in favor of the Veteran and finding that the VA canceled the appointment without his knowledge.
