Veteran Nexus Intake -

We are a medical team that writes nexus letters, where applicable — medical opinions that evaluate whether a diagnosed condition is connected to your time in service. We do not diagnose new conditions. We do not file your claim. We do not represent you. We work alongside your attorney, claims agent, or VSO.

✓This form takes about 8 minutes to complete.
✓You'll need your representative's contact info (if you have one).
✓Have a general idea of your diagnoses ready.
✓You do not need to upload anything yet.

This form is secure and HIPAA-compliant. Your information is encrypted.

We only work directly with VA-accredited attorneys, claims agents, and VSOs. They're the only ones legally allowed to charge for representing your claim, and they're who we trust to put our medical opinions in front of the VA the right way.

We understand some Veterans file on their own, and we respect that choice. But the process is complicated, and we want to make sure that when we write a letter, it's actually needed and built to do its job. An accredited representative helps us make sure of that.

Want help finding a VA-accredited representative? We can introduce you to accredited attorneys and claims agents we work with regularly. It's up to you whether to hire them — but having representation in place makes it much more likely we can help you.

Step 5 of 7

Your Records

Nexus letters require complete medical documentation. Let's figure out where things stand.

Do you have your C-File? *

Your C-File is your VA Claims File — the full record of every claim, decision, and supporting document the VA has on you.

Yes — I have a digital copy

Yes — I have a paper copy

No — but my representative has it or can get it

No — and I don't have a representative

I don't know what a C-File is

Please select an option.

May we have your permission to contact your representative specifically to request your C-File? *

Yes

Please make a selection.

You can request your C-File from the VA directly at va.gov/records. Check the box below and our team will email you step-by-step instructions.

Please email me instructions for requesting my C-File.

What is a C-File?
Your C-File (Claims File) is the complete VA record for your case — it includes your service records, medical evaluations, past rating decisions, and any supporting documents you've submitted. It's essential for writing a nexus letter because it tells us what the VA already knows about your service and health history.

📋 Medical Records Requirement

We cannot write a nexus letter without complete medical documentation — service treatment records, post-service treatment records, and specialist reports relevant to the conditions claimed. We will tell you up front if your records are incomplete before any payment or commitment.

I understand medlitix requires complete medical documentation and that the case cannot move forward until those records are in hand.

You must acknowledge this before continuing.
