Dismissed
The appeals for reimbursement of travel expenses for mental health and podiatry appointments on July 24, 2023, were dismissed. The mental health claim was resolved during the appeal process, making it moot. The podiatry claim was dismissed because no formal claim was filed.
The deciding factor: The mental health claim was resolved before the Board could adjudicate it, and no formal claim was ever filed for the podiatry expenses.
