VA Claims Process

Understand the Service Before Getting Started

A Nexus Letter is a medical opinion that explains a clinician’s assessment of a possible relationship between a medical condition and military service. It may be submitted as supporting evidence in a VA disability claim.

The opinion must reflect the available evidence and the clinician’s independent judgment. A requested service connection cannot be established in every case.

Your VA Nexus Letter Appointment

What the Evaluation May Include

The service reviews available medical and service records to assess whether the evidence supports a medical opinion about a condition’s relationship to military service.

Review of Relevant Records

Review of available medical history, service treatment records, diagnostic findings and other documentation relevant to the requested opinion.

Independent Clinical Assessment

Assessment of whether the records provide sufficient medical support for an opinion within the provider’s professional scope. Additional documentation or an examination may be needed.

Written Medical Opinion

When clinically appropriate, a written opinion explaining the conclusions, medical reasoning and relevant supporting evidence.

C&P Exam Education

General information about the Compensation and Pension examination process and the importance of communicating symptoms and history accurately. This service does not replace a VA-requested examination.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does an evaluation guarantee a Nexus Letter?

No. A written opinion depends on the available evidence, clinical findings and the provider’s professional judgment. The review may identify insufficient support for the requested opinion.

Does a Nexus Letter guarantee VA approval or a disability rating?

No. The VA determines the evidence’s weight, service connection, eligibility and any disability rating. The clinic cannot guarantee a claim outcome.

Will this replace a C&P examination?

No. A private medical opinion does not cancel or replace an examination requested by the VA. Follow the VA’s instructions concerning scheduled examinations.

Which conditions can the clinic evaluate?

Contact the clinic to confirm whether the requested evaluation falls within the provider’s scope and whether the available records are suitable for review. Some cases may require a specialist.

Does the clinic provide legal representation?

This service provides medical evaluation and opinions. It does not include legal advice or representation in a VA claim or appeal.
