The appeal concerning entitlement to additional payment of the cost of non-VA medical services provided on May 15, 2020, was dismissed due to the specific administrative dispute resolution process that does not allow for appellate review by the Board.
The deciding factor: The decision is based on the statutory and regulatory authority that provides a specific procedure for resolving disputes between VA and non-VA service providers under a Veterans Care Agreement, which exhausts all available administrative remedies before the Board can consider such appeals.
