Dismissed
The August 2024 appeal of the July 2024 rating decision that proposed a reduction of the disability rating for basal cell carcinoma (BCC) was dismissed because it did not actually decide any questions of law or fact that affects the provision of benefits.
The deciding factor: The July 2024 rating decision only proposed to reduce the BCC rating and did not make a final decision, thus no appealable action had been taken.
