FINDING OF FACT Subsequent to the appeal of the denials of payment for non-VA medical services provided between August 26, 2020 and December 10, 2020, the Agency of Original Jurisdiction (AOJ) administratively reversed the denials, approved the episodes of care for payment, and processed payments for each episode of care in question. CONCLUSION OF LAW As the benefits sought on appeal have been granted and resolved by administrative action, there remains no allegation of error of fact or law concerning the issues on appeal; the appeal is therefore moot, and dismissal is appropriate. 38 U.S.C. § 7105; 38 C.F.R. § 20.801. REASONS AND BASES FOR FINDING AND CONCLUSION The decisions on appeal were issued in November 2020 and January 2021, and constitute initial decisions; therefore, the modernized review system, also known as the Appeals Modernization Act (AMA) applies. The appellant in this case is the vendor who provided medical services to the Veteran between August 26, 2020 and December 10, 2020. In the November 2020 decisions on appeal, the AOJ rejected the claims for payment of the charges billed by the appellant for the medical services provided to the Veteran on the basis that the procedure/revenue code provided with the claim was inconsistent with the type of bill or that the claim lacked information or had submission/billing errors. On the VA Form 10182s, the appellant noted that the incorrect bill type and/or revenue code was used on the original filings, and had supplied corrected UB04 forms. Prior to the Board issuing a decision on this appeal, a VA Form 119: Report of Contact, was added to the file indicating that the vendor had resubmitted the claims and that the claims were paid as follows: $70.31 paid on March 15, 2021 for care provided August 26, 2020 to August 27, 2020; $439.84 paid on November 23, 2020 for care provided August 31, 2020 to September 10, 2020; $296.97 paid on March 15, 2021 for care provided September 16, 2020 to September 24, 2020; $461.33 paid on March 15, 2021 for care provided September 29, 2020 to November 4, 2020; $561.77 paid on March 15, 2021 for care provided November 10, 2020 to December 3, 2020; and $114.56 paid on March 15, 2021 for care provided December 10, 2020. An internal billing tracking document is also of record reflecting the dates and amounts of payment. In this case, the record indicates that the AOJ has reviewed and administratively approved payment for the non-VA medical services provided to the Veteran for each claimed episode of care between August 26, 2020 to December 10, 2020, representing a full grant of the benefits sought in this appeal. As a result, there is no remaining allegation of error of fact or law for appellate consideration in the present appeal. See 38 C.F.R. § 20.801(b)(4). As the appeal has been rendered moot, it is therefore dismissed. See 38 U.S.C. § 7105(d). MICHAEL MARTIN Veterans Law Judge Board of Veterans' Appeals Attorney for the Board A.
