Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claims for beneficiary travel payments for medical appointments on February 12, 2024, February 16, 2024, February 28, 2024, and March 8, 2024, due to untimely submission of claims.
The deciding factor: The claims were denied as the Veteran did not submit them within 30 days after completing travel for the appointments.
