Your Questions, Answered.
Q. What is a Nexus Letter, and why might I need one?
A Nexus Letter is a detailed medical opinion written by a qualified healthcare professional. It explains how your current condition is linked to your military service. This connection—called “nexus”—can be crucial in helping the VA approve your disability claim, especially if the link isn't clearly documented in your service records.
Q. What is a Disability Benefits Questionnaire (DBQ)?
A DBQ is a standardized VA form used to evaluate the severity and impact of a specific condition. Completed by a medical provider, the DBQ gives the VA essential details to help them determine your disability rating. Submitting a well-completed DBQ can help speed up your claim process.
Q. What is the difference between a Nexus Letter and an Independent Medical Opinion (IMO)?
They’re similar, but an IMO usually includes a more comprehensive medical review, sometimes with a physical or psychological evaluation. A Nexus Letter typically relies on existing records to provide a written opinion on service connection. Both are helpful tools for strengthening your VA claim.
Q. Can I get a Nexus Letter or IMO from my VA doctor?
In most cases, no. VA-employed doctors are not allowed to write Nexus Letters or IMOs due to potential conflicts of interest. These documents are typically obtained from independent professionals not affiliated with the VA.
Q. How do I request one of these documents?
Start by reaching out through the contact form. From there, we’ll guide you through securely submitting your records, and if needed, schedule a brief consultation. Once we’ve reviewed everything, we’ll create the appropriate documentation tailored to your case.
