What We Provide
At the patient’s request, our providers may perform the following services:
• Disability Benefits Questionnaires (DBQs) to assist with DBQ evaluations for veterans
• Nexus Medical Opinions to provide comprehensive insights
• Independent Medical Evaluations (IME) for objective assessments
• Focused Record Review for VA documentation
All services are completed based on clinical judgment, objective findings, and the medical evidence provided.
Our Clinical Approach
We are committed to providing professional, evidence-based medical documentation, particularly through our DBQ evaluations for veterans. Our evaluations emphasize: • Thorough review of submitted records • Objective, condition-focused examinations • Clear medical rationale • Documentation consistent with current medical standards. If the available evidence does not support a favorable medical opinion, including our independent medical evaluations and nexus medical opinions, this will be discussed with you prior to completion.
Important Before Scheduling
To ensure an appropriate evaluation for DBQ evaluations for veterans, individuals must submit the following for preliminary review: • DD214 (military discharge papers) • Relevant service treatment records (if available) • Prior VA decision letters (if applicable) • Civilian medical records related to the claimed condition • Imaging or diagnostic reports when available. Incomplete records may delay or prevent scheduling of independent medical evaluations or the formulation of nexus medical opinions.
What to Expect
Independent medical evaluations are distinct from regular primary care visits. These evaluations are crucial, especially for DBQ evaluations for veterans, which require a tailored approach. Follow these steps to ensure a thorough process: Step 1: Submit your records for review. Step 2: The provider will determine medical appropriateness based on the submitted information. Step 3: If deemed appropriate, our team will reach out to schedule your appointment. Step 4: Attend your focused medical evaluation, which may include nexus medical opinions. Step 5: Receive the completed documentation for your records.
Payment Policy for Independent Medical Evaluations
Independent medical evaluations, DBQ evaluations for veterans, and nexus medical opinions are services available for private pay. Payment is required before scheduling any appointment and prior to the release of completed reports. The fees associated with these evaluations cover the provider’s time for record review, the medical evaluation itself, and the preparation of the report, and they are not dependent on the outcomes of any claims. Please note that these services are not billed to insurance or the Department of Veterans Affairs.
