Dismissed
The appeal concerning entitlement to payment of the cost of non-VA medical services provided by the appellant between October 16, 2019, and October 19, 2019, is dismissed because the issue has been resolved in full by administrative action.
The deciding factor: The administrative action for the entire episode of care at issue in this appeal constitutes a reversal of the prior denials and 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A dismissal means the Board did not decide the issue on its merits — usually because it was withdrawn or had become moot.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.
