**Takeaway:** **It’s the medical bridge that links your condition to your service.**

Every letter is researched, written, and signed by a board‑certified MD or DO whose specialty matches your condition. The VA gives greater weight to opinions from credentialed specialists who cite peer‑reviewed evidence.

**Takeaway:** **Letters from specialists carry the credibility the VA expects.**

No. Our role is to evaluate your existing records and diagnoses to craft an independent medical opinion. For treatment, please continue with your current healthcare provider.

**Takeaway:** **We’re objective evaluators, not your treating physicians.**

We focus solely on the medical evidence. Accredited Veterans Service Officers (VSOs) or attorneys handle claim submission and tracking. We’re happy to coordinate with them.

**Takeaway:** **We handle the medical side—your VSO handles the paperwork.**

Claim outcomes depend on multiple VA factors. While a well‑supported Nexus Letter strengthens your case, no ethical provider can promise approval.

What exactly is a Nexus Letter (Independent Medical Opinion)?

A Nexus Letter is a physician‑written opinion that spells out, in VA‑friendly terms, how your current condition is at least as likely as not connected to your military service or an existing service‑connected disability. It fills the gap between your records and the VA’s legal standard.

Takeaway: It’s the medical bridge between your diagnosis and your service.

Do I need a Nexus Letter for every VA disability claim?

Not always. If a recent VA C&P exam already links your condition to service, you may be covered. When that link is missing, disputed, or you’re claiming a secondary condition, an independent Nexus Letter can be the deciding factor.

Takeaway: When the connection is unclear, a Nexus Letter can seal the deal.

How many letters will I need?

Plan on one letter per condition. Claiming migraines and PTSD? You’ll need two letters—each with its own medical reasoning and citations.

Takeaway: One condition, one letter—simple and clear.

Who writes my letter and why does that matter?

Your letter is drafted and signed only by board‑certified MDs or DOs who practice in the specialty related to your condition. The VA gives greater weight to opinions from credentialed experts.

Takeaway: All‑MD authorship means maximum credibility with the VA.

Can you diagnose or treat me?

No. We review existing diagnoses and records to create an independent medical opinion. For treatment, please see your regular healthcare provider.

Takeaway: We evaluate—you stay in charge of your care.

Will you file my VA claim for me?

We focus on the medical side. Accredited Veterans Service Officers or attorneys are the best people to file and track your claim. We’re happy to coordinate with them.

Takeaway: We supply the evidence; your VSO handles the paperwork.
