Dismissed
The appeal for an initial compensable rating for right hip arthroscopic scar residuals and the extension of a temporary total rating for right hip strain, impingement, and labral tear based on a need for convalescence were dismissed due to procedural defects.
The deciding factor: The January 2025 VA Form 10182 was not valid as it did not properly identify the specific issues with which the claimant disagreed, leading to the dismissal of the appeal.
